I  o  the  Jews  was  first  committed  the  care  of  the  sacred  Writings,  and  for  many  ages  they  were  in  a  manner  confined  to  that  chosen  poopl« 

|1  here  wns  then  no  need  of  translations  into  other  languages  ;  yet  was  tlie  providence  of  Cod  particularly  manifest  in  their  oreservation  an«l 

purity.      I  he  Jews  were  so  faithful  to  their  important  trust,  that,  when  copies  of  the  law  or  the  prophets  were  transcribed,  tliey  observed  the 

most  scrupulous  exactness  ;  they  not  only  diligendy  campared  the  one  with  the  other,  but  even  counted  the  number  of  letters  in  each  book,  aud 

jompared  and  recorded  the  numbers. 

Tlie  first  translations  that  were  made  of  the  Old  Testament  were  after  the  Babylonish  captivity.  They  are  called  the  Targums,  which  word 
hi<  the  Chaldean  language  signifies  Translations.  They  are  also  often  called  the  Chaldee  Paraphrases  ;  some  of  them  are  exact  translations  of 
jdiflcrent  parts  of  Scripture  ;  otJiers  are  properly  paraphrases,  containing  enlargements,  explanations,  and  even  additions.  Several  of  thein  arc 
[yet  extant,  and  they  are  often  mentioned  by  the  ancient  fathers  of  the  Christian  church.  Some  have  affirmed  that  the  five  books  of  IVjoses  and 
[iliat  of  Joshua  were  translated  into  Greek  before  the  days  of  Alexander  the  Great.  But  the  most  remarkable  translation  of  the  Old  Testament 
into  Greek  is  called  the  beptuagint,  which,  A  the  opinion  of  some  eminent  writers  is  to  be  credited,  was  made  in  the  reign  of  Ptolemy  Philadel- 
phus,  about  2bO  years  before  the  Christian  era.  At  any  rate  it  is  undoubtedly  the  most  ancient  that  is  now  extant,  and  on  many  accounts  deserVins 
I  notice,  tliough  not  to  be  put  on  a  level  with  the  Hebrew  text,  as  has  been  sometimes  done. 

The  New  Testament  was  originally  written  in  Greek ;  and  no  sooner  was  tlie  gospel  spread  through  the  nations  than  it  was  found  necessary 
I  to  translate  the  inspu-ed  Writings  for  each  into  its  proper  tongue.  Some  translations  of  the  Cid  Testament,  different  from  the-Septuagint  were 
made  into  Greek  from  the  year  of  Christ's  birth  128  to  200.  It  is  generally  believed  that  tlio  church  of  Antioch  was  favoured  with  a  Syrian 
translation  of  the  Bible  as  early  as  the  year  100.  The  Ethiopians  of  Abyssinia  have  a  version  of  the  Bible,  which  they  ascribe  to  Frunicntius 
of  the  fourtli  century-  Chrysostom,  who  lived  in  the  end  of  the  fourth,  and  Theodoiet,  who  lived  in  the  middle  of  the  fifth  century,  both  inform' 
us  that  they  had  the  Syrian,  Induin,  Persian,  Armenian,  Ethiopic,  and  Scythian  versions.  The  ancient  Egyptians  had  the  Scriptures  translated 
into  theu-  language.  I  ho  Georgians  have  a  version  in  their  ancient  language.  The  most  ancient  German  translation  is  supposed  to  have  been 
made  by  Ulphilas,  A.  D.  300,  fhe  Old  Testament  of  all  these  translations,  except  tlio  Syrian,  is  taken  from  the  Septuagint,  and  not  immedi- 
ately from  the  Hebrew  text. 

'  .  }\^  will  now  give  some  account  of  the  translations  of  the  Bible  into  the  English  language  TJiere  have  been  some  who  have  affirmed  that 
Adelme,  Bishop  of  blierbiu-n,  who  lived  in  the  beginning  of  tlie  eighth  century,  translated  the  Pshmis  into  the  Saxon  tongue.  That  however  is 
uncertain,  as  some  of  the  best  Instorians  make  nf.  mention  of  it ;  yet  it  is  possible,  as  he  was  a  man  of  great  parts,  and  of  yreat  learning  for  those 
times,  and  said  to  be  the  first  Lnglishman  who  wrote  in  the  Latin  language.  About  the  same  time,  or  a  little  after,  B>  o,  commonly  called  the 
venerable  Bede,  translated  some  parts  of  the  New  Testament,  some  say  the  whole  Bible,  but  that  is  not  probalile.-i^,  ,ir  200  years  later,  kinc 
Alfred  translated  the  Psl.mis  into  the  same  language.  In  1382  WicklifT  finished  his  translation  of  the  Bible,  which  is  yet  extant;  that  istosav 
there  are  copies  of  it  m  sonic  publick  and  private  libraries.  All  these  translations  were  made  from  the  \  ulgate.  In  the  reign  of  Henry  the 
eighth,  seyeral  editions  of  the  Old  and  Now  Testaments  were  published  in  English  ;  one  of  the  most  remarkable  is  that  of  Wflliam  Tyndal  in 
I  ..30.     1  he  triinslatiotis  of  the  New  restaiiujnt  were  made  fi-om  the  original  Greek,  but  probably  the  Old  Testament  either  from  the  Latin  of  tfie

This  last  circumstance,  wi  li  some  others,  induced  king  James  the  first  to  select  fifiy-four  persons,  eminent  in  'learning,  and  particularly  well 
acquainttKl  with  the  original  languages  in  which  the  Old  and  New  Testaments  were  written,  totmake  a  new  translation  o?  the  wliole  Bible  l" 
he  year  l607,  forty-seven  of  those  persons,  the  other  seven  probably  having  died,  assembled  together,  and  arranged  themselves  into  committees 
to  each  of  which  a  portion  was  given  o  translate.  They  were  favoured  not  only  with  the  best  translations,  but  with  the  most  accura™pies 
iind  the  various  readings  of  the  original  text.    After  about  three  years  assiduous  labour,  they  severally  completed  the  parts  assigned  them.    Thev

CHAPTER  I. 

1  The  creation  of  heaven  and  earth...,M  Of  the  sun,  moon, 
and  stars....2(i  Of  man  in  the  image  of  God....29  Also  the 
appointment  of  food. 

IN  the  beginning  '  God  created  the  "lieaven  and  the 
earth. 

2  And  the  earth  was  without  form,  and  void:  and 
darkness  was  upon  the  faiw  of  the  deep  :  and  the 
"  ^1,'''?*  ^{  f '"''  ""^ved  upon  the  face  of  the  waters. 

3  And ''God  said,  Let  there  be  light:  and  there 
was  h«ht. 

^  \^^^.^^}  ^''w  the  light,  that  it  was  good  :  and 
God  t  divided  the  hj^ht  from  the  darkness. 

6  And  God  called  the  li^ht  Day,  and  the  dark 
ness  he  called  INiKht.     And  the  t  evening  and  the 
mornuis  were  tht;  first  day. 

6  1I_  And  God  said, "  Let  there  be  f  a  firmament  in 
the  midst  ot  the  waters,  and  let  it  divide  the  waters 
Iron)  the  waters. 

7  And  God  made  the  firmament,  and  divided  the  wa- 
ters which  were  under  the  firmanujiit  from  the  waters 
which  were  above  the  firmament :  and  it  was  so. 

8  Antl  God  called  the  firmament  Heaven.  And 
">e  evening  and  the  morning  were  the  second  day. 

y  Tl  And  God  said,  Let  the  waters  under  the 
heaven  be  gathered  together  unto 'one  place,  and 
let  the  dry  land  appear  :  and  it  was  so. 

10  And  God  called  tlieMry  fonrf  Earth,  and  the 
gathering  together  of  the  waters  called  he  Seas:  luid 
God  saw  that  it  was  good. 

11  And  God  said,  Let  the  Earth  f  bring  forth 
grass,  the  herb  j^ieldmg  seed,  and  the  fruit-tree  yield- 
ing truit  alter  his  kind,  whose  seed  is  in  its{;lf,unon 
the  earth :  and  it  was  so. 

,  12  And  the  Ejirth  brought  forth  grass,  and  herb 
yielding  seed  after  his ''kind,  and  the  tree  yielding 
Iruit,  whose  seed  was  iii  itself,  after  his  kind  :  and 
God  saw  that  it  was  good: 

13  And  the  evening  and  the  morning  were  the 
third  day. 

14  ir  And  God  said,  Let  there  be « lights  in  the 
/irmament  ol  the  heaven,  to  divide  f  the  day  from 
the  night:  and  let  them  be  for  signs,  and  for  sea 
sons,  and  lor  days,  and  years : 

16  And  let  them  be  for  lights  in  the  firmament  of  the 
To'^/i  J*  ^'^^1  ''S^it  upon  the  earth :  and  it  was  so. 

r  k* .  ?"  V°V  ^^^^  *w°  ?''6at  lights:  the  greater 

light  to  +  rule  the  day,  and  the  lesser  light  to  rule  the 

night :  he  rmde  the  stars  also, 

1/  And  tiod  •  set  them  in  the  firmament  of  the 

iKJaven,  to  give  light  upon  the  earth, 


18  And  to'  rule  over  the  day  sr,^  over  the  night, 
and  to  divide  the  light  from  the  darkness :  and  Got! 
saw  that  xt  was  good. 

19  And  the  evening  and  tlie  morning  were  the 
fourth  day. 

20  And  God  .said,  Let  the  waters  bring  forth 
abundantly  the  moving  creature  that  hath  t  lilt',  and 
fowl  tlmt  may  fly  aliove  the  earth  in  the  open  firma- 
ment of  heaven. 

21  And  God  created  great  whales,  and  every  living 
creature  that  moveth,  which  the  waters  brought  foriii 
abundantly,  after  their  kind,  and  every  winged  fow  1 
after  his  kind  :  and  God  .saw  that  //  was  sood. 

22  And  God"  blessed  them,  sayiiiit,  lie  friiiUiil, 
and  multiply,  and  fill  the  waters  in  the  .seas;  and 
let  fowl  multiply  in  the  earth. 

~-?3.An^  the  evening  and  the  inoniiiig  were  the 
nfth  day. 

24  And  God  said.  Let  the  earth  bring  forth  the 
living  creature  after  his  kind,  catths  mid  creeping 
thing,  and  lieast  of  the  earth  after  his  kind  :  and  it 
was  so. 

.  25  And  God  made  the  bea.st  of  the  earth  after  his 

kind,   and  cattle  after  tlieir  kind,  and  tn  cry  tiling 

I  that  creepeth  upon  the  earth  after  his  kind ;  and 

Godsaw  that  it  was  good. 

26  And  God  said,  "Let  us  make  man  in  "our  image, 
»«ter  our  likeness,-  and  let  them  have ''dominion  over 
the  fish  of  the  sea,  and  over  the  fo^\  1  of  the  air,  and 
over  the  cattle,  and  over  all  the  earth,  and  over  every 
creeping  thing  that  creepeth  upon  the  earth. 

27  So  God  created  man  in  his  own  imago ;  iii 
the  image  of  God  created  l«.e  him  ;  ''  mah;  and  ftmale 
created  he  tliein. 

28  And  God  blessed  them,  and  God  said  unto 
them, '  J3e  fruitful,  and  multiply,  and  replenish  the 
earth,  and  subdue  it:  and  have  dominion  over  the 
nsh  of  the  sea,  and  over  the  fowl  of  tlie  air,  and 
over  every  living  thing  that  movetli  t  upon  the 
earth. 

1  ^^j.?  ^"^  ^^  ^^^'  Behold,  I  have  given  you  every 
lierbtbearmgseed,  which  wupon  the  face  of  all  the 
eartli,  and  every  tree,  in  tlie  which  is  the  fruit  of  a 
tree  yielding  seed ; '  to  you  it  shall  be  for  meat. 

JO  And  to  *  every  beast  of  the  earth,  and  to  every 
fowl  of  the  air,  and  to  every  thing  that  creepeth  upon 
the  earth,  wherein  there  is  f  life,  I  have  given  every 
greM  herb  for  meat :  and  it  was  so. 

yl  And  God  saw  every  thing  mat  he  had  made, 
and  behold,  it  loas "  very  good.  And  the  evening 
and  the  morning  were  the  sixth  day.

CHAPTER  XVI. 

1  Sarai  being  barren  givetli  Ilajjar  to  Abram....! 5  Ishmnel  is 

born. 

NOW  Sarai,  Abram's  v.  ife, "  bare  him  no  children : 
and  she  had  a  "  handmaid,  an  Egyptian,  whose 
name  ivas  Ha§ar. 

2  And  Sarai  said  unto  Abram,  Behold  now,  the 
Lord  hath "  restrained  me  I'roni  bearing :  I  pray  thee, 
go  in  unto  my  maid  ;  it  may  bi;  that  I  may  t  obtain 
children  by  her.  And  Abram  '^  hearkened  to  the  voice 
of  Sarai. 

3  And  Sarai,  Abram's  wife,  took  Hagar  her  maid, 
the  Egyptian,  after  Abram  had  dwelt  •"  ten  vears  in 
the  land  of  Canaan,  and  gave  her  to  her  husband 
Abram  to  be  his  '  wife. 

4  And  he  went  in  unto  Hagar,  and  she  conceived  : 
and,  when  she  saw  that  she  had  conceived,  her  mis- 
tress was  « despised  in  her  eyes. 

5  And  Sarai  said  unto  Abram,  ''My  wrong 6e  upon 
th6e  :  I  have  given  my  maid  into  thy  bosom  ;  and 
when  she  saw  that  she  had  conceived,  I  was  desjiised 
in  her  eyes  :  the  Lord  'judge  between  me  and  thee. 

6  But  Abram  said  unto  Sarai,  Behold,  thy  maid  is 
''  in  thy  hand  :  do  to  her  as  it  pleaseth  thee.  And 
when  Sarai '  dealt  hardly  witli  her,  she  "  tied  from 
her  face. 

7  And  the  angel  of  the  Lord  °  found  her  b};- a  foun- 
tain of  water  in  the  wilderness,  by  the  fountain  in  the 
way  to  Shur. 

8  And  he  said,  Hagar,  Sarai's  maid,  "  whence 
camest  thou  ?  and  whither  wilt  thou  go  .''  And  she 
said,  P  I  flee  from  the  face  of  my  mistress  Sarai. 

9  And  the  angel  of  the  Lord  said  unto  her.  Return 
to  thy  mistress,  and  "^  submit  thyself  under  her  hands. 

10  And  the  angel  of  the  Lord  said  unto  her,  I  will 
'  multiply  thy  seed  exceedingly,  that  it  shall  not  be 
numbered  for  multitude. 

11  And  the  angel  of  the  Lord  said  unto  her.  Be- 
hold, thou  art  with  child,  and  shalt  bear  a  son,  and 
shalt  call  his  namelshmael ;  because  the  Lord  '  hath 
heard  thy  affliction. 

12  And  he  will  be  a  wild  man  ;  his  hand  will  be 
'againstevery  man.  and  every  man's  hand  against  him  : 
and  he  shall  dwell  in  the  presence  of  all  his  brethren. 

13  And  she  called  the  name  ofthe  Lord  that  spake 
unto  her, "  Thou  God  seest  me  :  for  she  said.  Have  I 
also  here  "  looked  after  him  that  seeth  me  ? 

14  Wherefore  the  well  was  called  ||  Beer-laha-roi : 
behold.  t7  is  between  Kadesh  and  Bered. 

15  And  Hagar  bare  Abram  a  son  ;  and  Abram 
caisCu  Ills  son  srianic,  Wiijcu  iiagar  bare,  lahinacl. 

16  And  Abram  was  fourscore  and  six  years  old 
when  Hagar  bare  Ishmael  to  Abram.

and  all  the  inhabitants  of  the  cities,  and  °  that  which 
grew  upon  the  ground. 

26  But  his  wife  p  looked  back  from  behmd  hun, 
and  she  became  ^  a  pillar  of  salt. 

27  II  And  Abraham  gat  up  early  in  the  morning  to 
yh.  18,21,  ^},p  place  where '  he  stood  before  the  Lord  : 

28  And  he  looked  toward  Sodom  jmd  Gomorrah, 
and  toward  all  the  land  of  the  plain,  and  beheld,  and, 
lo^  the 'smoke  of  the  country  went  up  as  the  smoke 
ot  a  furnace. 

29  And  it  came  to  i)ass,  when  God  destroyed  the 
cities  of  the  plain,  that  God '  remembered  Abraham, 
and  sent  Lot  out  of  the  midst  of  the  overthrow,  when 
he  overthrew  the  cities  in  the  which  Lot  dwelt. 

^  30  H  And  Lot  went  up  out  of  Zoar,  and  dwelt "  in 
the  mountain,  and  his  two  daughters  with  him ;  for 
he  feared  to  dwell  in  Zoar :  and  he  dwelt  in  a  cave, 
he  and  his  two  daughters. 

31  And  the  first-born  said  unto  the  younger.  Our 
father  is  old,  and  there  is  *  not  a  man  in  the  earth  ^  to 
come  in  unto  us  after  the  manner  of  all  the  earth : 

32  *  Come,  let  us  make  our  father  drink  wine,  and 
we  will  lie  with  him,  that  we  may  preserve  seed  of 
our  father. 

dS  And  they  made  their  father  •  drink  wine  that 
night :  and  the  first-born  went  in,  and  lay  with  her 
father ;  and  he  perceived  not  when  she  lay  down,  nor 
when  she  arose. 

34  And  it  came  to  pass  on  the  morrow,  that  the 
first-born  said  unto  the  younger.  Behold,  I  lay  yester- 
night with  my  father :  let  us  make  him  drink  wme 
this  night  also ;  and  go  thow  in,  and  lie  with  him,  that 
we  may  preserve  seed  of  our  father. 

35  And  they  made  their  father  drink  wine  that 
night  also :  and  the  younger  arose,  and  lay  with  him ; 
and  he  perceived  not  when  she  lay  down,  nor  when 

rkingj  19,  she  arose. 

SQ  Thus  were  both  the  daughters  of  Lot  witli  child 
11'%'J;^-^'' by  their  fiither. 

37  And  the  first-born  bare  a  son,  and  called  his 
name  ||  Moab :  the  same  is  the  father  of  the "  Moab- 
ites  unto  this  day. 

38  And  the  younger,  she  also  bare  a  son,  and  cal- 
led his  name  j|  Ben-ammi :  the  same  is  the  father  of 
the  children  of  Ammon  unto  this  day.  :  .

know  that  thou  didst  this  in  the  integrity  of  thy  heart; 
for  I  also ''  withheld  lliee  from  sinning '  against  me  : 
therefore  f  suffered  I  thee  not  to  toucii  her. 

7  Now,  therefore,  restore  the  man  his  wife ;  for  he 
is  °  a  prophet,  and  he "  shall  pray  for  thee,  and  thou 
shalt  live  :  and  if  thou  "  restore  her  not,  know  thou 
that  thou  shalt  surely  die,  p  thou,  and  all  that  are  thine. 

8  Therefore  Abimelech ''  rose  early  in  the  morning, 
and  called  all  his  servants,  <md  told  all  these  things 
in  their  ears :  and  th^  men  were  sore  afraid. 

9  Then  Abimelech  called  Abraham,  and  said  unto 
hinrij  What  hast  thou  done  unto  us  .'*  and  what  have 
I  offended  thee,  that  thou  hast '  brought  on  me  and 
on  my  kingdom  a '  great  sin  .''  thou  hast  done  deeds 
unto  me  that  ought  not  to  be  done. 

10  And  Abimelech  said  unto  Abraham,  Whatsaw- 
est  thou,  that  thou  hast  done  this  thing .'' 

1 1  And  Abraham  saidj  Because  I  thought.  Surely 
the  '  fear  of  God  is  not  m  this  place ;  and  tney  will 
slay  me  for  my  wife's  siikc. 

12  And  yet  indeed  she  is  "  my  sister ;  she  is  the 
daughter  ot  my  father,  but  not  the  daughter  of  my 
mother ;  and  she  became  my  wife. 

13  And  it  came  to  pass,  when  God  caused  me  to 
'  wander  from  my  father's  house,  that  I  said  unto  her. 
This  is  thy  kindness  which  thou  shalt  shew  unto  me ; 
at  every  place  whither  we  shall  come,  say  of  me.  He 
is  my  brother. 

14  And  Abimelech  took  sheep,  and  oxen,  and  men- 
servants,  and  women-servants,  and  gave  them  unto 
Abraham.and  restored  him  Sarah  his  wife. 

15  And  Abimelech  said.  Behold,  my  land  is  before 
thee :  dwell  where  it  pleaseth  thee. 

16  And  unto  Sarah  he  said.  Behold,  I  have  given 
I  thy  brother  a  thousand  pieces  of  silver ;  behold,  he 
tsto  thee  a  covering  of  the  eyes  unto  all  that  are  with 
thee,  and  with  all  other:*  thus  she  was  reproved. 

17  So  Abraham  prayed  unto  God  :  and  God '  heal- 
ed Abimelech,  and  his  wife,  and  his  maid-servants  ; 
and  they  bare;  children. 

1 8  For  the  Lord  had  **  fast  closed  up  all  the  wombs 
of  the  house  of  Abimelech,  liecause  of  Sarah,  Abra-

f«  p'  « *    Abraham  made  a  great  feast  the  same  day  that  Isaac 
was  \\eanod. 

9  II  And  Sarah  saw  the  son  of  ({agar  the  Ej^yp- 
tian,  which  she  had  lK)r:ie  unto  AbraJiam, '  mocking : 

10  Wherefore  she  said  unto  Abraham,  "^  Cast  out 
this  bond- woman  and  her  son :  for  the  son  of  this  bond- 
woman shall  not  be "  heir  with  my  son,  even  with  Isaac. 

1 1  And  the  thing  was  very  grievous  in  Abraham's 
sight, "  because  of  his  son. 

12  And  God  said  unto  Abraham,  Let  it  not  be 
grievous  in  thy  sight,  because  of  the  lad,  and  because 

I'  ". '"  ot  diy  bond- woman  :  in  all  tliat  Sarah  hath  s£ud  unto 
thee,  hearken  unto  her  voice  ;  for  p  in  Isaac  shall  thy 
seed  be  called. 

13  And  also  of  the  son  of  the  bond-woman  will  I 
''  make  a  nation,  because  he  is  thy  seed. 

14  H  And  Abraham  rose  irp  early  in  the  morning, 
and  took  bread  and  a  bottle  ofwater,  and  gave  it  unto 
Hagar,  (putting  j7  on  her  shoulder,)  and  the  child,  and 
sent  her  away  :  and  she  departed,  and '  wandered  in 
the  wilderness  of  Beer-sheba. 

15  And  the  water  was '  spent  in  the  bottle,  and  she 
cast  the  child  under  one  of  the  shrubs. 

1 6  And  she  went  and  sat  her  down  over  against 
him,  a  good  way  off,  as  it  were  a  bow-shot :  for  she 
said.  Let  me  not  see  the '  death  of  the  child.  And  she 
sat  over  against  him.,  and  lift  up  her  voice,  and  went. 

17  And  God  heard  the  voice  of  the  lad  :  and  tlie 
angel  of  God  called  to  Hagar  out  of  heaven,  and  said 
unto  her.  What  aileth  thee.  Hagar?  fear  not;  for 
( lod  liatli  heard  the  voice  oi  the  lad  where  he  is. 

18  Arise,  lift  up  the  lad,  and  hold  him  in  thine 
liaiid ;  for  I  will  make  him  a  great  nation. 

19  And  God  opened  her  eyes,  and  she  saw  a "  well 
of  water ;  and  she  went,  and  filled  the  bottle  with 
water,  and  gave  the  lad  drink. 

20  And  God  was  vnth  the  lad ;  and  he  grew,  and 
dwelt  in  tlie  wilderness,  and  became  an  archer. 

21  And  he  dwelt  in  the  wilderness  of  Paran  :  and 
his  »  mother  took  him  a  wife  out  of  the  land  of  E^pt. 

22  And  it  came  to  pass  at  that  time,  that  ^  Ahnne- 
lech,  and  Phichol  the  chief  captain  of  his  host,  spake 
unto  Abraham,  saying,  *  God  is  with  thee  in  all  that 
thou  doest : 

23  Now,  therefore, "  swear  unto  me  here  by  God, 
"  that  thou  wilt  not  deal  falsely  with  me,  nor  with  my 
son,  nor  with  my  son's  son :  hut  according  to  the  kind- 
ness that  *  I  have  done  unto  thee,  thou  shalt  do  unto 
me,  and  to  the  land  wherein  thou  hast  sojourned. 

24  And  Abraham  said,  *•  I  will  swear. 
2.5  And  Abraham  reproved  Abimelech  because  of 

*■  a  well  of  water,  which  Abimelech's  servants  had 
violently  taken  away. 

26  And  Abimelech  said, '  I  wot  not  who  hath  done 
.  thisthing ;  neither  didst  thou  tell  me,  neither  yet  heard 

1  of  it  hnt  to-day. 

27  And  Abraham  *  took  sheep  and  oxen,  and  gave 
them  unto  Abimelech  ;  and  both  of  them  made  a 
covenant. 

28  And  Abraham  set  seven  ewe-lambs  of  the 
nook  bv  themselves.

18  And  she  said,  Drink,  my  lord  :  and  she  hasted, 
and  let  (Iowa  her  pitcher  upon  her  hand,  and  gave

19  And.  when  she  had  done  giving  him  drink,  she

thy  flock . 

32  I  will  pass  through  all  thv  flock  to-day,  remov- 
ing from  thence  all  the  speckled  and  spotted  cattle, 
and  all  (he  brown  cattle  among  the  sheep,  and  the 
spotted  and  speckled  among  the  goats  ;  ana  of  such 
sliall  be  *  my  lure. 

33  So  shall  "  my  righteou.sness  "  answer  for  me 
t  in  time  to  come,  when  it  shall  conie  for  my  hire  be- 
fore thy  face :  every  one  that  is  not  speckled  and  spot- 
ted among  the  goats,  and  brown  among  the  sheep, 
that  shall  be  counted  stolen  with  me. 

34  And  Laban  said.  Behold,  I  would  it  might  be 
according  to  thy  word. 

35  And  he  removed  that  day  the  he-goats,  that 
were  ring-straked  and  spotted,  and  all  the  she-goats 
that  were  speckled  and  spotted,  and  e\ery  one  that 
had  some  white  in  it,  and  all  the  brown  among  the 
sheep,  and  gave  than  into  the  hands  of  his  sons. 

36  And  he  set  three  days'  journey  betwixt  him- 
self and  Jacob  :  and  Jacob  fed  the  rest  of  Laban's 
flocks. 

37  And  Jacob  took  him  *  rods  of  green  poplar,  and 
of  the  t  hazel  and  **  chesnut-tree :  and  pilled  white 
straeks  in  them,  and  made  the  white  appear  which 
was  in  the  rods. 

38  And  he  set  the  rods  which  he  had  pilled  before 
the  flocks  in  the  gutters  in  the  watering-troughs,  when 
the  flocks  came  to  drink,  that  they  should  f  conceive 
^vhen  they  came  to  drink. 

39  .\nd  the  flocks  conceived  before  the  rods,  and 
brought  forth  cattle  ring-straked,  speckled,  and 
si)otted. 

40  And  Jacob  did  separate  the  lambs,  and  set  the  fa- 
ces of  the  flocks  toward  the  ring-straked  and  all  the 
brown  m  the  flock  of  Laban ;  and  he  put  his  own  flocks 
by  themselves,  and  put  them  not  unto  I^aban's  cattle. 

41  And  it  came  to  pass,  whensoever  the  stronger 
cattle  did  conceive,  that  Jacob  laid  the  rods  before  the 
eyes  of  the  cattle  in  the  gutters,  that  they  might  con 
ceive  among  the  rods : 

42  But  when  the  catde  were"  feeble  he  imt  them 
not  m  :  so  the  feebler  were  Laban's,  and  he  stronger 
Jacob's. 

43  And  the  man  f  uicreased  f  exceedingly,  and 
had  much  cattle,  and  maid-servants,  and  men-ser- 
vants, and  camels,  and  asses.

8  If  he  said  thus, "  The  speckled  shall  be  thy  wa-

thus,  The  rin;2;-straked  shall  be  tiiy  hire  ;  then  bare 
all  the  cattle  ring-straked. 

9  P  Thus  God  hath  taken  away  the  cattle  of  your 
father,  and  given  than  to  me. 

10  And  it  came  to  pass,  at  the  time  that  the  cattle 
conceived,  that  I  lifted  up  mine  eyes,  and  •>  saw  in  a 
dream,  and,  behold,  tlie  rams  which  leaped  upon  the 
cattle  were  ring-straked,  si)eckled,  and  grizzled. 

1 1  And  the  '  angel  of  God  spake  iinto  me  in  a 
dream,  saying,  Jacob :  And  I  said.  Here  am  \. 

12  And  he  said.  Lift  up  now  thine  c^es,  and  sec, 
all  the  rams  which  leap  upon  the  cattle  are  ring- 
straked,  speckled,  and  grizzled  :  "  for  1  have  seen  all  •  ^^  ''• " 
that  Laban  docth  unto  thee.  *'"' '  ' 

13  lam  the  Godof  Beth-el,*  where  thou  anointedst 
the  pillar,  and  where  thou  vo\vcdst  a  vow  imto  me : 
now  arise,  get  thee  out  from  this  land,  and  return  un- 
to the  land  of  thy  kindred. 

14  And  "  Rachel  and  Leah  answered  and  said  un- 
to him.  Is  there  yet  »  any  portion  or  inheritance  for 
us  in  our  father's  house  .^ 

15  Are  we  not  counted  of  him  strangers  ?  for  he 
hath  y  sold  us,  and  hath  quite  devoured  also  our 
money. 

16  For  all  the  riches  which  God  hath  taken  from 
our  father,  that  is  ours  and  our  children's :  now  then, 
^  whatsoever  God  hath  said  unto  thee,  do. 

17  Then  Jacob  rose  u]),  and  set  his  sons  and  his 
wives  upon  camels : 

18  And  he  carried  away  all  his  cattle,  and  all  hi.s  ,„,„  ,„„

21  So  he  fled  with  all  that  he  had ;  and  lie  rose  up,  o  jo.b  .3

they  t  brought  him  hastily  out  of  the  dungeon  :  and 
he "  shaved  himself,  and  changed  his  ■*  raiment,  and 
came  in  unto  Pharaoh. 

1.5  And  Pharaoh  said  unto  Joseph,  I  have  dream- 
ed a  dream,  and  there  is  none  that  can  interjjret  it : 
and  I  have  heard  say  of  thee,  ||  that  thou  canst  under- 
stand a  dream  to  interpret  it : 

16  AndJosei)h  answered  Pharaoh,  saying, "i  his 
not  in  me  :  GofI  shall  give  Pharaoh  '  an  answer  of 
peace. 

1 7  And '  Pharaoh  said  unto  Joseph,  In  my  dream, 
behold,  I  stood  upon  the  bank  of  the  river : 

18  And,  behold,  there  came  up  out  of  the  river 
seven  kine,  fat-fleshed,  and  well-favoured  ;  and  they 
fed  in  a  meadow. 

19  And,  behold,  seven  other  kine  came  up  after 
them,  poor  and  very  ill-favoured,  and  lean-fleshed, 
such  as  I  never  saw  in  all  the  land  of  Eg}'pt  for  bad 
ness  : 

20  And  the  lean  and  the  ill-favoured  kine  did  eat 
up  the  first  seven  fat  kine : 

21  And  when  they  had  eaten  them  up,  it  could 
not  be  known  that  they  had  eaten  them  ;  but  they 
wrre"-  still  ill-favoured,  as  at  the  beginning.  So  I 
awoke. 

22  And  I  saw  in  my  dream,  and,  behold,  seven 
ears  came  up  in  one  stalk,  full  and  good : 

23  And,  behold,  seven  ears,  withered,  thin,  and 
blasted  with  the  east  wind,  sprung  up  after  them : 

24  And  the  thin  ears  devoured  the  seven  good

which  IS  in  the  field,  upon  the  horses,  upon  the  asses,

shalt  be  cut  ofi'  from  the  earth.

tliee  up,  '  for  to  shew  in  thee  my  power ;  and  that 
'my  name  may  be  declared  throughout  all  the  earth. 

17  '  As  yet  exaltest  thou  thyself  against  my  people, 
that  thou  wilt  not  let  them  go  ? 

18  Behold,  to-morrow  about  this  time,  I  w  ill  cause 
it  to  rahi  a  very  grievous  hail,  such  as  hath  not  been 
hi  Esypt  since  the  foundation  thereof  even  until  now.

and  beast  which  shall  be  found  in  the  field,  and  shall

and  said,  Rise  up,  and  get  you  forth  ftom  among 
ni\  people,  both  you  and  the  children  ot  Israel ;  and 
go,  serve  the  Lord,  as  ye  have  said. 

32  Also  take  your  flocks  and  your  herds,  as  ye 
have  said,  and  be  gone ;  and '  bless  me  also. 

33  And  the  Egyptians  were"urgeiu  upon  the  neo- 
Ic,  that  tlicy  might  send  them  out  ol  the  land  m 
laste ;  for  tliey  said.  We  he  "  all  dead  men. 

34  And  the  people  took  their  dough  before  it  was 
leavened,  their  ^  kneading-troughs  being  bound  up 
in  their  clothes  upon  their  shoulders. 

33  And  the  children  of  Israel  did  according  t.^  the 
word  of  Moses :  and  they  *  borrowed  of  the  Egyp- 
tians jewels  of  silver,  and  jewels  of  gold,  and  raiment : 

36  And  the  Lord  gave  the  people »  favour  m  the 
sight  of  the  Egyptians,  so  that  they  ^  lent  unto  them 
such  things  as  they  required :  and  they  spoiled  the 
Egyptians. 

37  And  the  children  of  Israel  journeyed  from '  Ka- 
meses  to  Succoth,  about  '^  six  hundred  thousand  on 
foot  that  were  men,  besides  children. 

38  And  a  t  mixed  multitude  went  up  also  with 
them  ;  and  flocks  and  herds,  even  very  much  cattle. 

39  And  they  baked  unleavened  cakes  of  the  dough 
which  they  brought  forth  out  of  Egypt,  for  it  was  not 
leavened :  because  they  were  ^  thrust  out  of  Egypt, 
and  could  not  tarry,  neither  had  they  prepared  tor 
themselves  any  victual. 

40  ^  Now  the 'sojourning  of  the  childienof  Israel,

41  And  it  came  to  pass  at  the  end  of  the  four  hun- 
dred and  thirty  years,  even  •■  the  self-same  day  it  came 
to  pass,  that  all  the  hosts  of  the  Lord  went  out  from 
the  land  of  Egypt. 

42  It  is  a  night  f  to  be  much  observed  unto  the 
Lord  for  bringing  them  out  from  the  land  of  Egj'pt : 
this  is  that  night  of  the  Lord  to  be  observed  of  all  | 
the  children  of  Israel  in  their  generations.

this  day,  in  which  ye  came  out  from  Egyjit,  out  of 
the  house '  f  bondage ;  for "  by  strength  of  hand  tlie

'  no  stranger  eat  thereof :  |     14  And  it  shall  be,  when  thy  son  asketii  thee  f  m  nieb. 

44  But  every  man's  servant  that  is  "  bought  for  |  time  to  come,  saying, '  What  is  this  ?  that  thou  shah  """^ 


money,  when  thou  hast  circumcised  him,  then '  s

45  ""  A  foreigner  and  a  hired  servant  shall  not  cat 
thereof. 

46  "  In  one  house  shall  it  be  eaten :  thou  shalt  not 
carry  forth  aught  of  the  flesh  abroad  out  of  the  house : 
neither  shall  ye  break  a "  bone  thereof. 

47  All  the  congregation  of  Israel  shall ''  keep  it. 

48  And  when ''  a  stranger  shall  sojourn  with  thee, 
and  will '  keep  the  passover  to  the  Lord,  let  all  his 
males  be  circumcised,  and  then' let  hitn  come  near 
and  keep  it ;  and  he  shall  be  as  one  that  is  bom  in  the

49  "  One  law  shall  be  to  him  that  is  home-born

50  Thus  did  all  the  children  of  Israel :  as  the  Lord 
commanded  Moses  and  Aaron,  so  did  they.

6  Thy  right  hand,  O  Lord,  is  "  become  glorious 
in  power :  thy  right  hand,  O  Lord,  hath  dashed  in 
pieces  the  enemy. 

7  And  in  the  greatness  of  thine  excellency  thou 
nzech.2,8.  }jagt  overthrown  them  that  rose  up  "  against  thee: 

thou  sentest  forth  thy  wrath,  ivhich  consumed  them 
as  stubble. 

8  And  with  the  °  blast  of  thy  nostrils  the  waters 
were  gathered  together :  the  floods  stood  upright  as 

pi.«.63,i3.  a  heap,  and  the  depths  were  •*  congealed  in  the  heart 
of  the  sea. 

9  The  enemy  •>  said,  I  will  pursue,  I  will  overtake, 
I  will '  divide  the  spoil ;  my  lust  shall  be  satisfied 
upon  them  ;  I  will  draw  my  sword,  my  hand  shall 
destroy  them. 

10  Tiiou  didst '  blow  with  thy  wind,  the  sea  *  co- 
vered them  j  they  sank  as  lead  in  the  mighty  waters. 

1 1  Who  IS  like  unto  thee,  O  Lord,  among  the 
gods  ?  who  is  like  thee, "  glorious  in  holiness,  "  fear- 
ful in  praises,  doing  wonders  ? 

12  'riiou  stretchedst  out  thy  right  hand,  ^  the  earth 
swallowed  them. 

13  Thou  in  thy  mercy  hast  '■  led  forth  the  ueople 
«7j/c/ithou  hast  redeemed :  thou  hast  guided  them  in 
thy  strength  unto  thy  holy  habitation. 

14  The  people  shall  hear,  and  "  be  afraid :  sorrow 
shall  take  hold  on  the  inhabitants  of  Palestina. 

15  Then  the  dukes  of  Edom  shall  be  amazed ;  the

were  come  to  the  desert  of  Sinai,  and  had  pitched  in  the 
wilderness :  and  there  Israel  camped  before  the  mount. 

3  And  Moses  went  up "  unto  God,  and  the  Lord 
called  unto  him  out  of  the  mountahi,  saying.  Thus 
shalt  thou  say  to  the  house  of  Jacob,  and  tell  the 
children  of  Israel  ; 

4  "^  Ye  have  seen  what  I  did  unto  the  Egyptians, 
and  how  I  bare  you  on "  eagles'  wings,  and  brought 
you  unto  myself.

'vhich  offered  burnt-offerings,  and  sacrificed '°  peace-

Abihu,  and  seventy  of  the  elders  of  Israel ;

1 1  And  upon  the "  nobles  of  the  children  of  Israel

and  Moses  went  up  into  the  mount  of  God.

and  put  it  upon  the  horns  of  the  ■'  altar  widi  thy  ■>  finger, 
and  pour  all  the  blood  beside  the  bottom  of  the  altar. 

13  And  thou  shalt  take  all  the  fat  that  covereth  the

two  kidneys,  and  the  'fat  that  is  upon  them, and  burn

14  But  the  flesh  of  the  bullock,  and  his  skin,  and 
his  dun§,  shalt  thou  burn  with  lire '  without  the  camp : 
it  is  a  sin-ofrering. 

15  Thou  shalt  also  take  one  ram;  and  Aaron  and 
his  sons  shall  put  their  hands  upon  the  head  of  the  ram. 

16  And  thou  shalt  slay  the  ram.  and  thou  shalt  take 
his  blood,  and  sprinkle  it  round  about  upon  the  altar. 

1 7  And  thou  shalt  cut  the  ram  in  pieces,  and  *  wash 
the  inwards  of  him,  and  his  legs,  and  put  them  imto 
his  pieces,  and  unto  his  head. 


.30  And  th'U  son  that  is  priest  in  his  stead  shall  put 
them  on  ^  seven  days,  when  he  coincth  into  the  taber- 
nacle of  the  congregation,  to  minister  in  the  holy;;/«a'. 

31  And  thou  shalt  take  the  ram  of  the  consecration, 
and  seethe  his  flesh  in  the  *>  holy  place. 

32  And '  Aaron  and  his  sons  shall  eat  the  flesh  of 
the  rani,  and  the  bread  that  is  in  the  basket,  by  the 
door  of  the  tabernacle  of  the  con^^regation. 

33  And  they  shall  eat  those  thmgs  wherew  ith  the 
'  atonement  was  made  to  consecrate  and  to  sanctify 
them :  but '  a  stranger  shall  not  eat  thereof,  because  "•" 
tht^  are  holy. 

o'\  And  if  aught  of  the  flesh  of  the  consecrations, 
or  of  the  bread,  remain  unto  the  morning,  then  thou 
shalt  burn  the  "  remainder  with  fire  :  it  shall  not  be 
eaten,  because  it  is  holy.

them  :  and  I  will  make  of  thee '  a  great  nation^ 

11  And  Moses  besought  the  Lord  his  God,  and 
said.  Lord,  '  why  doth  thy  wrath  wax  hot  against  thy 
people,  which  thou  hast  brought  forth  out  of  the  land 
of  Egypt  with  great  power,  and  with  a  mighty  hand  r 

12  "Wherefore  should  the  Egyptians  speak  and 
>  cay.  For  mischief  did  he  bring  them  out,  to  slay  them 

in  the  mountains,  and  to  consume  them  from  the  face 
of  the  earth  ?  Turn  from  thy  fierce  wrath,  and  *  re- 
pent of  this  evil  against  thy  people : 

13  y  Remember  Abraham,  Isaac,  and  Israel,  thy 
servants,  to  whom  thou  swearest '  by  thine  own  selt, 
and  saidst  unto  them, "  I  will  multiply  your  seed  as 
the  stars  of  heaven ;  and  all  this  land  that  I  have 
spoken  oi'  \\'ill  I  give  unto  your  seed,  and  they  shall 
inherit  it  for  ever. 

14  And  the  *  Lord  repented  of  the  evil  which  he 
thought  to  do  unto  his  people. 

16  H  And  Moses  turned,  and  went  down  from  the 
*=  mount,  and  the  two  tables  of  the  testimony  tvere  in 
his  hand :  the  tables  were  written  on  both  their  sides : 
on  the  one  side  and  "^  on  the  other  ivere  they  written. 

16  And  the  tables  «;ere  the  *  work  of  God,  and  the 
writing  was  the  writing  of  God,  graven  upon  the  tables. 

17  And  when  ^  Joshua  heard  the  noise  of  the  peo- 
ple as  they  shouted,  he  said  unto  INIoses,  There  is  a 
noise  of  war  in  the  camp. 

18  A«id  he  said,  It  is  not  the  voice  of  them  that 
shout  for  mastery,  neither  is  it  the  voice  of  them  that 
cry  for  being  overcome ;  but  the  noise  of  them  that 
sing  do  I  hear. 

19  And  it  came  to  pass,  as  soon  as  he  came  lugh

AND  when  the  people  saw  that  Moses  *  delayed  \  and  Moses' « anger  waxed  hot,  and  he  cast  the  tables 
to  come  down  out  of  the  mount,  the  people  ga- 1  out  of  his  hands,  and ''  brake  them  beneath  the  mount, 
thered  themselves  together  unto  Aaron,  and  said  unto  I  20  And  he  took  the  calf  which  they  had  made,  and 
him, "  Up,  make  us '  gods,  which  shall '' go  before  us ;  I  ournt  t<  in  the  fire,  and 'ground  it  to  powder,  and

thee  shall  they  do. 

12  H  And  the  Lord  si)ake  unto  Moses,  saving, 

13  Sneak  thou  also  unto  the  children  of  Israel, 
saying.  Verily  my  sabbaths  ye  shall  keep :  tor  it  is  a

doth  sanctify  you.  ^     .    • 

14  Ye  shall  keep  the  sabbath  therefore;  for  it  is 
holy  unto  you :  every  one  that  defileth  it  shall  surely 
be  put  to  death :  for  whosoever  doeth  aiiy  work  there- 
in, that  soul  shall  be '  cut  oti'  from  among  his  people.

IS  the  sabbath  "*  of  rest,  f  holy  lo  tlie  Lord  :  whoso- 
ever doeth  any  woik  in  the  sabbath -day,  he  shall  sure-

16  Wherefore  the  children  of  Israel  shall  keep  the 
sabbath,  to  observe  the  sabbath  throughout  their 
generations,  for "  a  periietual  covenant. 

17  It  is  a  sign  between"  me  and  the  childien  of 
Israel  for  ever :  for  in  ^  six  days  the  Lord  made  hea- 
ven and  earth,  and  on  the  seventh  day  he  rested,  and 
was  refreshed. 

18  H  And  he  gave  unto  Moses,  when  he  had  made 
an  end  of  communing  with  him  upon  mount  Sinai, 
twotables  oftestimony,  tables  of"  stone,  written  with 
the 'finger  of  God.

'all  the  statutes  which  tiie  Lord  hath  spoken  unto 
them  by  the  hand  of  Mo.ses. 

12  Ii  And  Moses  spake  unto  Aaron,  and  unto 
Eleazar,  and  unto  Ithamar,  his  sons  that  were  left. 
Take  the  *  meat-offering  that  remaineth  of  the  offer- 
ings of  the  Lord  made  by  fire,  and  eat  it  without 
leaven  beside  the  aUar ;  for  it  is  most  holy. 

13  And  ye  shall  eat  it  in  the  holy  place,  because  it 
is  thy  due,  and  thy  sons'  due,  of  the  sacrifices  of  the . 
Lord  made  by  fire  ;  for  so  1  am  commanded.  > 

14  And  the  wave-breast  and  heave-shoulder  shall 
ye  eat  in  a  clean  i)lace :  thou,  and  thy  sons,  and  thy 
daughters  with  tliee :  for  they  be  thy  due,  and  thy 
sons'  dne,  tvhich -die  given  out  of  the  sacrifice  of 
peace-offerings  of  the  children  of  Israel. 

15  The  heave-shoulder  and  the  wave-breast  shall 
they  bring,  with  the  offerings  made  by  fire  of  the  fat, 
to  wave  it  for  a  wave-offering  before  the  Lord  ;  and 
it  shall  be  thine,  and  thy  sons'  with  thee,  by "  a  stat- 
ute for  ever ;  as  the  Lord  hath  commanded. 

16  H  And  Moses  *  diligently  sought  the  go  it  of  the 
sin-ofFermg,  and,  behold,  it  was  burnt:  and  he  was 
angry  with  Eleazar  and  Ithamar,  the  sons  of  Aaron 
which  tcere  left  alive,  saying, 

17  Wherefore  have  ye  not  eaten  the  sin-offering 
in  the  holy  place,  seeing  it  is  most  holy,  and  God  hath 
given  it  you ''  to  bear  the  iniquity  of  the  congregation, 
to  make  atonement  for  them  before  the  Lord  ? 

1 8  Behold,  the  blood  of  it  was  not  brought  in  with- 
in the '  holv  place :  ye  should  indeed  have  eaten  it  in 
the  holy  place  as  I  commanded. 

19  And  Aaron  said  unto  Moses,  Behold,  this  day^ 
have  they  offered  their  sin-offering  and  their  burnt- 1 

offering  before  the  Lord  ;  and  such  thui§s  have  be-  i  toucheth  the  carcase  of  them  shall  be  unclean  '  until  1 2Cor

3ii  And  your  children  shall  wander  in  the  wilder- 
ness '  forty  years,  and  bear  vour "  whoredoms,  until 
your  carcases  be  wasted  in  the  wilderness. 

34  After  the  number  of  the  days  in  which  ye 
searched  the  land,  even  forty  days, '  each  day  for  a 
year,  shall  ve  bear  your  iniquhiesj  even  forty  years  ; 
and  ye  shall  know  my  ^  u.each  ot  uromise  : 

35  I  the  Lord  have  said, '  1  will  surely  do  it  unto 
all  this  evil  congregation,  that  are  gathered  together 
against  me;  in  this  wilderness  they  shall  be  con- 
sumed, and  there  they  shall  die. 

^  Tf  And  the  men  which  Moses  sent  to  search  the 
land,  who  returned,  and  made  all  the  congregation  to 
murmur  against  him,  by  bringmg  up  a  *  slander  upon 
the  land, 

37  Even  those  men,  that  did  bring  up  the  evd 
report  upon  the  land,  died  by  the  plague  "before  the 
Lord. 

38  But  Josliua  the  son  of  Nun,  and  Caleb  the  son 
of  Jeuhunneh,  which  ivere  of  the  men  that  went  to 
search  the  land, '  lived  still. 

39  H  And  Moses  told  these  sayings  unto  all  the  chil- 
dren of  Israel ;  and  the  people  **  mourned  greatly. 

40  And  they "  rose  up  early  in  the  moniijo^,  and  sat 
them  up  into  the  ton  of  the  mountaui.  saym^,  Lo, 
^we  be  here,  and  will  go  up  unto  the  place  which  the 
Lord  hath  promised ;  for  we  have  sinned. 

41  And  Moses  said,  Wherefore  now  do  you  trans- 
gress the  commandment  of  the  Lord  ?  but  it  shall 
not  prosper." 

4S2  Go  not  up,  for  the  Lord  is « not  among  you ; 
that  ye  be  not  smitten  before  your  enemies. 

4o  For  the  Amalekiles  and  the  Canaanites  are 
there  before  you,  ;md  ye  shall  fall  by  the  sword  :  be- 
cause ye  are  turned  away  from  the  Lord,  therefore 
the  Lord  will  not  be  with  you.

14  And  if  a  stranger  sojourn  with  you,  or  whoso- 
ever be  among  you  in  your  generations,  and  will  offer 
an  offering  made  by  fare,  ot  a  sweet  savour  unto  the 
Lord  ;  as  ye  do,  so  he  shall  do.

6  And  wherefore  have  ye  made  us  to  come  up  out

21  And  Balaam  ''  rose  up  in  the  ujorning,  and  sad- 
dled his  ass.  and  went  with  the  prin(<'s  of  Moab. 

22  And  'Clod's  anger  was  kindled  because  he  went : 
and  the  "angel  of  the  Loud  st(K)d  in  the  way  for  an 
adversary  against  him.     Now  he  was  riding  uiion  his  iri.  ;w,-i 
ass,  and  his  two  servants  were  with  him.  k  »ien.  4 

23  And  the '  ass  saw  the  angel  of  the  Lord  stand-  '"

and  the  °  ass  turnci    aside  out  of  the  v^•ay,  and  went  >•■ 
hito  the  field;  and  Balaam  "smote  the  ass,  to  turn  mice,. 21 
her  into  the  way. 

24  But  the  angel  of  the  IjORo  stood  in  a  path  of 
the  vineyards,  •■  a  wall  being  on  this  side,  and  a  wall 
on  that  side. 

25  And  when  the  iiss  saw  the  angel  of  the  Lono, 
she  thrust  herself  unto  the  wall,  and  '^  criisluHl  Ba- 
laam's foot  against  the  wall:  and  \w  smote  ht-r  again. 

2G  And  the  angel  of  the  Lord  went  i'lirther,  and 
stood  in  a  narrow  nlace,  where  van  '  no  way  to  turn, 
either  to  the  rightliand  or  to  the  left. 

27  And  when  the  ass  saw  the  angtl  of  the  Lord, 
she  fell  down  under  Balaam  :  and  "Balaam's  anger  »Ji»m.i,^ 
was  kindled,  and  he  smote  the  ass  with  a  stafT.  "'""  *^ 

28  And  the  Lord 'opened  the  mouth  of  the  ass;  lii^'jii."'

thee,  that  thou  hast  smitten  me  these  three  tin\es  ?      l"^;'^  'i'tj 

29  And  Balaam  said  unto  the  ass.  Because  thou  i-:|.h.%,'i4.

9  And  '  God  came  unto  Balaam,  and  said.  What  I  thee  ?  And  he  said.  Nay.

10  And  Balaam  said  unto  God,  Balak  the  son  of  land  he  saw  the  angel  of  the  Lord  standing  in  the  way.  {'"^ ',',"',';' 
Zippor.  king  of  Moab,  hath  sent  unto  me,  srti/mg^,     J  and  his  sword  drawn  in  his  hand  :  and  he  bowed  °"    ' 

1 1  Behold,  there  is  a  peojiie  come  out  of  Egj'i)t,

'curse  me  them  ;  peradventure  1  shall  be  able  to 
overcome  them,  and  drive  them  out. 

12  And  God  said  unto  Balaam,  Thou  .shalt  not  go 
with  them;  thou  shalt  'not  curse  the  people:  for  they 
'  are  blessed. 

1.3  And  Balaam  rose  up  in  the  morning,  and  said 
unto  the  princes  of  Balak,  Get  you  into  your  land :  for 
the  IjORd  "  refuseth  to  give  me  leave  to  go  with  you. 

14  And  the  princes  of  Moab  ro.se  upland  they  went 
unto  Balak,  and  said,  Balaam  *  refuseth  to  come 
with  us. 

15  And  Balak  sfiiit  yet  again  princes,  more,  and 
more  honouralile  than  they. 

16  And  they  came  to  Balaam,  and  said  to  him. 
Thus  saith  Balak,  the  son  of  Zi[)por,  Let  nothing,  I 
pray^thee,  hinder  thee  from  coming  unto  me : 

1 7  For  I  will  nromote  thee  unto  very  great  honour, 

therefore,  I  pray  thee,  curse  me  this  people. 

1 8  And  Balaam  answered  and  said  unto  the  ser- 
vants of  Balak,  If  Balak  would  give  me  his 'house 


down  his  head,  and  ft^ll  flat  on  his  face 

32  And  the  angel  of  the  Lord  said  unto  him, 
^Wherefore  hast  thou  smitten  thine  ass  these  three  >  •*»•  !"i,f 
times;  behold,  I  went  out  to  withstand  thee,  because  ,2p,, ,.,

33  And  the  ass  saw  me,  and  liu'ned  from  me  these 
three  times ;  unless  she  had  turned  j'rom  me,  surely 
now  also  I  had  slain  thee,  and  "  saved  her  alive.         InM"^' 

34  And  Balaam  said  unto  the  angel  of  the  Lord,  I  ^  ^*„„^.^ 
have  ''  sinned  ;  for  I  knew  not  that  thou  stoodest  in  'iJ^W  * 
the  way  against  me :  now,  therefore,  if  it  displease 
thee,  I  will  get  me  back  again. 

35  And  the  angel  of  the  Lord  said  unto  Balaam, 
■■  Go  with  the  men  •  but  only  the  word  that  I  shall 
speak  unto  thee,  tha  thou  shalt  speak.  So  Balaam 
went  with  the  princes  of  Balak. 

36  And  when  Balak  heard  that  Balaam  was  come, 
he ''  went  out  to  meet  him  unto  a  city  of  Moab,  ^vhich  rs"

54  And  Moses  and  Elcazarthe  priesttook  the  gold 
of  the  captains  of  thousands  and  of  hundreds,  and 
brought  it  into  the  tabernacle  of  the  congregation, 
for  "  a  memorial  for  tlic  children  of  Israel "  ^ofore 
the  Lord. 

CHAPTER  xxxri. 

1  The  Reubenites  and  Gaditrs  .sue  for  their  inheritance  on  that 
side  Jordan  :  39  They  conquer  it. 

NOW  the  children  of"  Reuben,  and  the  children 
of  "  Gad,  had  a  very  great "  multitude  of  cattle : 
and  when  they  saw  the  land  of  "^  Jazer,  and  the  land 
of*  Gilead,  that,  behold,  the  place  was 'a  place  for 
cattle  : 

2  The  children  of  Gad,  and  the  children  of  Reu- 
ben, came  and  spake  unto  Moses,  and  to  Eleazar  the 
priest,  and  unto  t  he  princes  of  the  congregation,  saying, 

3  « Ataroth,  and ''  Dibon.  and  Jazer,  and '  Nimrah, 
and "  Heshbon,  and  Elcaleh,  and  '  Shebam,  and  Ne- 
bo,  and  "^  Beon, 

4  Even  the  country  which  the  Lord  °  smote  before 
the  congregation  of  Israel,  is  a  land  for  cattle,  and 
thy  servants  have  cattle  : 

5  Wherefore,  said  they,  if  we  have  found  grace  in 
thy  sight,  let  this  land  be  given  unto  thy  servants  for 
a  possession,  and  °  bring  us  not  over  Jordan. 

6  And  Moses  said  unto  the  children  of  Gad,  and  to 
the  children  of  Reuben,  shall  your  brethren  go  to  war, 
and  shall  ye  sit  here  ? 

7  And  wheretore  f  discourage  ye  ^  the  heart  of  the 
children  of  Israel  from  going  over  into  the  land  which 
the  Lord  hath  given  them  .'' 

8  Thus  did  your  fathers,  when  I  sent  them  from 
Kadesh-barnea  to  see  the  land. 

9  Eor "  when  they  went  ui)  unto  the  valley  of  Esh- 
col,  and  saw  the  land,  they  discouraged  the  "heart  of 


hi^ritance 

19  For  we  will  not  inherit"  with  theni  on  yonil(;r  ^^_^^ 
side  Jordan,  or  forward  ;  because  our  inheritance  is  io.Ti4,u 
fallen  to  us  on  this  side  Jordan  eastward. 

20  And  Moses  said  unto  them,  If  ye  will  do  this 
thing,  if  ye  will  go  armed  ''before  the  Lord  townr, 

21  And  will  go''  all  of  you  armed  over.lordau  be- 
fore the  Loup,  until  he  hath  drh  en  out  his  enemies 
from  before  him, 

22  And  the  land  be  subdued  befort;  the  Lord  ; 
then  afterward  ye  shall  return,  and  be '' guiltless  be- 
fore the  Lord,  and  before  Israel ;  and  this  land  shall 
be  *  your  possession  before  the  Lord. 

23  But  if  ye  will  not  do  so,  behold,  ye  have  sin- 
ned against  the  Lord  :  and  be  sure  'your  sin  \<\\\ 
*  find  you  out. 

24  Build  ye  cities  for  your  little  ones,  and  folds  for 
your  sheep  ;  and  do  that  which  hath  ''  i)roeee(led  out 
of  your  mouth. 

25  And  the  children  of  Gad,  and  the  children  of 
Reuben,  spake  unto  Moses,  saying,  Thy  servants 
will  do  as  rny  lord  commandeth. 

26  Our  little  ones,  our  vvives,  our  Hocks,  and  all 
our  cattle,  shall  be  tiiere  in  the  cities  of  Gilead  ; 

27  But  thy  servants  will  'pass  over,  every  man  i.)o.ii.i.i.i 
''  armed  for  war,  before  the  Lord  to  baule,  as  uiy 
lord  saith. 

28  So  concerning  them  Mo.ses  commanded  Elea- 
zar the  priest,  and  Joshua  the  son  of  Nun j  and  the 
chief  fathers  of  the  tribes  of  the  children  pi  Israel : 

29  And  Moses  said  unto  them.  If  the  children  of 
Gad,  and  the  children  .of  Reuben,  will  pass  with  you 
over  Jordan,  every  man  armed  to  battle  before  the 
Lord,  and  the  land  shall  be  subdued  before  you, '  then 
ye  shall  give  them  the  land  of  Gilead  for  a  possession : 

30  But  if  they  will  not  iiass  over  with  you  armed.

Moses  spake  unto  the  children  of  Israel,  according 
unto  all  that  the  Lord  had  given  him  in  command- 
inint  unto  them  ; 
I,  Num.  21,      4  After  he  had  slain  ''  Silioii  the  king  of  the  Amor- 
ites, which  dwelt  in  Hcshbon,  and  U^  the  king  of 
^''  Bashan,  which  dwelt  at '  Astaroth  in  Ldrei : 

5  On  this  side  Jordan,  in  the  land  of  Moab,  began 
Moses  to  declare  this  law,  saying, 

6  The  Lord  our  God  .spake  unto  us  in  Horeb,  say- 
ing;, Ye  have  dwelt ''  long  enough  in  this  mount : 

7  Turn  you,  and  take  your  journey,  and  go  to  the

thereunto,  in  the  plain,  in  the  hills,  and  in  the  vafe, 
and  in  the  south,  and  by  the '  sea-side,  to  the  land  ot 
the  Canaanites,  and  unto  Lebanon,  unto  the  great 
river,  the  river  Euphrates. 

8  Behold,  I  have  f  set  the  land  before  you  :  go  in 
and  possess  the  land  which  the  Lord  sware  unto 
your  fathers,  Abraham,  Isaac,  and  Jacob,  to  give  unto 
thein,  and  to  "  their  seed  after  them. 

9  And  I  spake  unto  you  at "  that  time,  saying,  I 
am  not  able  to  bear  you  myself  alone : 

10  The  Lord  your  God  hath  multiiilied  j'ou,  and,

6  I  am  the  Lord  thy  God.  which  brought  thee  out 
of  the  land  of  Egypt,  iVom  the  house  of  t  bondage. 

7  Thou  shalt  have  "^  none  other  gods  before  me. 

8  Thou  shalt  not  make  thoe  anp  graven  image,  or 
any  likeness  of  any  thinfi  that  is  m  heaven  above,  or 
that  is  in  the  earth  beneath,  or  that  is  in  the  waters 
beneath  the  earth  : 

9  Thou  shalt  not  bow  down  thyself  unto  them,  nor 
.serve  them  :  for  1  the  1>ord  thy  God  am  a. jealous 
God,  visiting  the  iniquity  of  the  fathers  upon  the  chil- 
dren unto  the  third  and  fourth  generation  of  them 
that  hate  me, 

10  And  shewing  mercy  unto  thousands  of  them 
that "  love  me,  and  keep  my  '  commandments. 

1 1  Thou  shalt  not  take  the  name  of  the  Lord  thy 


12  Keep  the  sabbath-day  to  sanctify  it,  astlie  Lord 
thy  God  hath  commanded  thee. 

13  Six  days  thou  shalt  labour,  and  do  all  thy  work ; 

1 4  But  the  seventh  day  is  the ''  sabbath  of  the  Lord 
thy  God :  in  it  thou  shalt  not  do  any  work,  thou,  nor 
thy  son,  nor  thy  daughter,  nor  thy  man-servant,  nor 
thy  maid-servant,  nor  thine  ox,  nor  thine  ass,  nor  any 
of  thy  cattle,  nor  thy '  stranger  that  is  within  thy  gates ; 
that  thy  man-servant  and  thy  maid-servant  may  rest 
as  vvcii  "as thou. 

15  And  remember  that  thou  wast  a  servant  in  the 
land  of  Egypt,  and  that  the  Lord  thy  God  brought 
tliee  out  thence,  through  a  mighty  hand,  and  by  a 


.stri^tclied-outarm:  there fo.-e  the  LoRDthy  God  com- 
manded thee  to  "keep  the  sid>bath-<lay.

thy  G<kI  hath  conmianded  thee  ;  that  thy  days  may

17  Thou  shalt  not 'kill.

or  bis  ass,  or  uny  thing  that  t.v  thy  neighly  ur's. 

22  These  words  the  IjOrd  spake  tmto  all  your  as- 
sembly in  the  mount,  out  of  the  midst  of  the  fire,  of 
the  cloud,  and  of  the  thick  darkness,  with  a  great 
voice;  and  he  *  added  no  mon; :  and  nc  wrote  tliem 
in  two  tables  ^ofstone,  and  delivered  them  imto  me. 

23  And  it  came  to  pass,  when  ye  heard  the  voice 
out  of  the  midst  of  the  darkness,  (iior  the 


Lord  our  God  shall  speak  unto  thee  ;  and  we  will 
hear  if,  and  do  it. 

28  And  the  Lord  heard  the  voice  of  your  words, 
when  ye  spake  unto  me;  and  the  Lord  said  unto  me, 
I  have  lieard  the  voice  of  the  words  of  this  peo|)lo,

H  Also  in  ^  lloreb  ye  provoked  the  Loud  to  wrath, 
so  that  the  Loud  \Aas  angry  with  you,  to  have  de- 
stroyed you. 

9  When  I  was  gone  up  into  the  '^  mount,  to  receive 
the  tables  of  stone,  even  the  tables  of  the  covenant 
which  the  Lord  made  with  you,  then  I  abode  in  the 
mount  forty  days  and  forty  nights  ;  I  '  neither  did  eat 
bread  nor  drink  water : 

10  And  the  Lord  delivered  unto  mo  'two  tables 
» Ex.3!,  18.  of  stone,  written  with  the  '  finger  of  uod  :  and  on 
I  Mai.  12,    tiiom  roas  written  according  to  all  the  words  which  the 

Lord  spake  with  you  in  the  mount,  out  of  the  midst 
of  iiro,  in  the  day  of  the  assembly. 

1 1  And  it  came  to  pass,  at  the  end  of  forty  days  and 
forty  nights,  that  the  Lord  gave  me  the  two  tables 
of  stone,  even  the  tables  of  tlie  "  covenant. 

12  And  the  Lord  said  unto  me.  Arise,  get  thee 
down  quickly  from  hence ;  for  thy  people  which  thou 
hast   brought  forth  out  of  Egypt  have  *  corrupted 

(jpn.  18,  themselves :  they  are  ^  (luickly  turned  aside  out  of  the 
Avay  whi(;h  I  commanded  thorn ;  they  have  made  them 
'■  a  molten  image. 

13  Furthermore,  the  Lord  spake  unto  me.  saying, 
"  I  have  seen  this  peoi)le,  and,  behold,  it  is  ^  a  stiff- 
necked  people : 

14  "  Let  me  alone^  that  I  may  destroy  them,  and 
'"•  blot  out  their  name  from  under  heaven:  and  I  will 

make  of  thee  a  nation  mightier  and  greater  than  they. 

15  So  I  turned,  and  came  down  from  the  mount, 
and  the  mount  f  burned  with  fire :  and  the  two  tables 
of  the  covenant  were  in  my  two  hands. 

16  And  ''  I  looked,  and,  behold,  ye  had  sinned

3  And  I  made  an  ark  of  shittim-wood,  and  hewed 
two  tables  of  stone  like  unto  the  first,  and  went  iii) 
into  the  mount,  having  the  two  tables  in  mine  hand.

2  The  majesty  of  Go(i....C  The  blessings  of  the  twelve  tiibes. 
26  The  excellency  of  Israel. 

AND  this  is  the '  blessing,  wherewith  Moses  the 
man  of  God  blessed  the  children  of  Israel  before 
his  death. 

2  And  he  said,  The  Lord  came  from  ''  Sinai,  and  ^ 
rose  up  from "  Seir  unto  them ;  he  shined  forth  from  i 
mount  ■'  Paran,  and  he  came  with  ten  thousands  of 
saints ;  from  his  right  hand  went  a  fiery  law  for  them. 

3  Yea,  he  loved  ^  the  people  : '  all  his  saints  are  m 
thy  hand  :  and  they « sat  dou  11  at  thy  feet ;  every  one 
shall "  receive  of  thy  words. 

4  Moses  commanded  us  a  law,  even  Uiq  '  inherit- 
ance of  the  congregation  of  Jacob. 

6  And  he  was  king  in  Jeshurun,  when  the  heads  of 
tlie  peoiile  and  the  tribes  of  Israel  were  gathered  to- 
gether. 

6  Let "'  Reuben  live,  and  not  die  ;  and  let  not  his 
men  be  few. 

7  And  this  is  the  blessing  of '  Judah :  ;and  he  said. 
Hear,  Lord,  the  voice  of  Judah,  and  "bring  him  unto 
his  people  :  let  his  hands  be  °  sufticient  for  him ;  and 

i.i;^ii.4'j,8.  be  thou  a  help  to  him  from  his  enemies. 

8  And  of  Levi  he  sJiid,  Let  thy  °  Thunimim  and 
thy  U  rim  be  with  thy  holy  one,  whom  thou  didst  prove 
at  Massah,  atid  with  whom  thou  didst  ^  strive  at  the 
waters  of  Meribah ; 

9  Who  said  unto  his  father  and  to  his  mother,  I 
have  "^  not  seen  him ;  neither  did  he  acknowledge  his 
brethren,  nor  knew  his  own  children :  for  they  have 
observed  thy  word,  and  kept  thy  covenant. 

10  They  shall '  teach  Jacob  thy  judgmeiKs,  and 
Israel  thy  law  :  they  shall  put '  incense  before  thee, 
and  whole  burnt-sacrifice  uj)on  thine  aUar.

of  the  dream,  and  the  t  interpretation  thereof,  that  he 
worship{)ed,  and  returned  into  the  host  of  Israel,  and 
said,  "i  Arise ;  for  the  Lord  hath  delivered  into  your

with  'empty  pitchers,  and  'lamps  within  the  pitchers. 

17  And  he  said  untcthem,  Look  on  me,  and  do 
likewise :  and,  behold,  when  I  come  to  the  outside

thee,  of  Go(i,  that  we  may  know  whether  our  way  i 
whicli  we  go  shall  be  prosperous.

"  Ijefore  the  Lord  is  your  way  wherein  ye  go. 

7  Then  the  five  men  departed,  and  came  to '  Laish, ; 
and  saw  the  people  that  were  therein,  how  thej;  dwelt  j 
careless  after  the  manner  of  the  Zidonians,  quiet  and 
t  secure  ;  .ind  there  was  no  magistrate  in  tne  land, ; 
that  might ""  put  them  to  shamu  in  any  thing:  and  i 
they  were  far  ''om the  Zidonians,  and  had  no  busi-

8  And  they  came  unto  their  brethren  to  Zorah  and  ; 
Eshtaol :  and  their  bretliren  said  unto  them,  What  | 
sau  ye  ? 

9  And  they  said.  Arise,  that  we  may  go  up  against 
them :  for  we  have  seen  the  land,  and,  behold,  it  is 
very  good  :  and  are  ye  f  still  ?  be  not  slothful  to  go,

14  Then  'answered  the  five  men  that  went  to  spy

24  And  he  said,  Ye  have  taken  away  my  gods 
which  I  made,  and  the  priest,  and  ye  arc  gone  aw  ay : 
and  "  what  have  I  more.''  and  what  is  this  that  ye  say  Vrm.V.'lr

zophini,  of  mount  Ephraim,  and  his  name  ivas 
Elkaiiali,  the  son  of  Jeroham,  the  son  of  Elihu,  the 
son  of  Tohu,  the  son  of  Zuph,  an  "  Ephrathite : 

2  And  he  had  "  two  wives ;  the  name  of  the  one 
ivas  Haimah,  and  the  name  of  the  other  **  Peninnah  : 
and  Peninnah  had  children,  but  Hannah  had  '  no 
children. 

3  And  this  man  went  up  out  of  liis  city  yearly  to 
worship,  and  to  sacrifice  unto  the  Lord  of^ hosts  in 
'  Shiloh.  And  the  two  sons  of  Eli,  Hophni  and  Phinc- 
lias,  the  priests  of  the  Lord,  ivere  there. 

4  Ana  when  the  time  was  that  Elkanah  *  offered, 
he  gave  to  Peninnah  his  wife,  and  to  all  her  sons  anci 
her  daughters,  ''  portions : 

5  But  unto  Hannah  he  gave  a  vrrthv  portion  :  for 
he  '  loved  Hannah  ;  but  the  Loi ')  nau  ''  shut  up  her 
womb. 

6  And  her  '  adversary  also  provoked  her  sore,  for 
to  make  her ""  fret,  because  the  liOUD  had  shut  up  her 
womb. 

7  And  as  he  did  so  }'ear  by  year,  when  she  went 
up  to  the  house  of  the  Lord,  so  she  provoked  her ; 
therefore  she  went,  and  did  not  eat. 

8  Then  said  Elkanan  her  husband  to  her,  Hannah, 
"  why  weepest  thou  ?  and  why  eatest  thou  not  ?  and 
why  is  thy  heart  grieved  ?  am  not  I  better  to  ihee  than 
ten  sons  r 

9  So  Hannah  rose  up,  after  they  had  eaten  in  Shi- 
loii,  and  after  they  had  drunk :  (now  Eli  the  priest  sat 
upon  a  seat  by  a  post  of  the  ••  temple  of  the  Lord  :) 

10  And  she  was  in  bitterness  of  soul,  and  prayed 
unto  the  Lord,  and  wept  sore. 

1 1  And  she  ^  vowed  a  vow,  and  said,  O  Lord  of 
hosts,  if  thou  wilt  indeed  look  on  the  affliction  of  thine 
handmaid,  and  remember  me,  and  not  forget  thine 
handmaid,  but  wilt  give  unto  thine  handmaid  a  man 
child,  then  I  will  'give  him  unto  the  Lord  'all  the 
days  of  his  life,  and  there  shall  no  *  razor  come  upon 
his  head. 

12  And  it  came  to  pass,  as  she  continued  praying 
before  the  Lord,  that  Eli "  marked  her  mouth. 

13  Now  Hannah,  she  "  spake  in  her  heart ;  only 
her  lips  moved,  but  her  voice  was  not  heard :  there- 
forj;  Eli  *  thought  she  had  been  drunken. 

14  And  Eli  said  unto  her,  How  long  wilt  thou  be 
drunken  ?  put  away  thy  wine  from  thee. 

15  And  Hannah  answered  and  said.  No,  *  my  lord; 
I  am  a  woman  of  a  sorrowful  spirit :  I  have  drunk 
neitlier  wine  nor  strong  drmk,  but  have  'poured  out 
my  soul  before  the  Lord. 

16  Count  not  thine  handmaid  for  a  daughter  of 
''  Belial :  for  out  of  the  abundance  of  my  complaint 
and  grief  have  I  spoken  hitherto. 

17  Then  Eli  answered  and  said.  Go' in  peace:  and 
the  God  of  Israel  grant  </t€e  thy  petition  that  thou  hast 
asked  of  him. 

18  And  she  said.  Let  thine  handmaid  find  grace  in 
thy  sight.  So  the  woman  went  her  way,  and  did  eat, 
and  her  countenance  was  ''  no  more  sad. 

19  And  they  rose  up_  in  the  morning  early,  and 
'  worshipped  bifoie  ihe  Ly  ku,  and  reiurQed,aiiu  came 


to  their  house  to  Ramah :  and  Elkanah  '  knew  Han- 
nah his  wife  ;  and  the  Lord  remembered  her. 

20  Wherefore  it  came  to  pass,  f  when  the  time  was 
come  about  after  Hannah  had  conceived,  that  she 
bare  a  son,  and  called  his  namejj  Samuel,  sffj/ui^'-.  Be- 
cause 1  have  asked  him  of  the  Lord. 

21  And  the  man  Elkanah,  and  all  his  house,  went 
up  to  offer  unto  the  Lord  the  yearly  sacrifice,  and  his 
vow. 

22  But  Hannah  « went  not  up ;  for  she  said  unto 
her  husband,  /  will  not  go  up  until  the  child  be 
''  weaned,  and  then  I  will  bring  him,  that  he  may 
appear  before  the  IjOrd,  and  there  abide  '  for  ever. 

23  And  Elkanah  her  hu  > md  said  unto  her,  Do 
what  seemeththce  good :  tarry  until  thou  have  wean- 
ed him ;  only  the  Lord  ^  establish  his  word.  So  the 
woman  abode,  and  '  gave  her  son  suck  until  she 

i  weaned  him. 

I  24  And  when  she  had  weaned  him,  she ""  took  him 
I  up  with  her,  with  three  bullocks,  and  one "  ephah  of 
J  flour,  and  a  l)ottlc  of  wine,  and  brought  him  unto  the 
I  house  of  the  Lord  in  Shiloh :  and  the  "child  ttusyounK. 
i  25  And  they  slew  a  bullock,  and  brought  the  child 
I  to  VM 

26  And  she  said,  Oh,  my  lord !  as  thy  soul  liveth, 
my  lord,  1  am  the  woman  that  stood  by  thee  here, 
P  praying  unto  the  Lord. 

27  For  this  child  I  prayed  ;  and  tht  Lord  hath 
given  me  my  petition  which  I  asked  of  him  : 

I  28  Thcrel'orc  also  I  have  lent  him  to  the  Lord  ;  as 
I  long  as  he  liveth  ||  he  shall  be  lent  to  the  Lord.  And 
j  he  worshipped  the  Lord  there. 

CHAPTER  II. 

s  1  Hannah's  song  in  thankfulness....  12  The  sin  of  Eh's  sons. 
I  4  ND  Hannah  *  prayed,  and  said.  My  "  heart  re- 
I JT^  joiceth  in  the  Lord  ;  mine '  horn  is  exalted  in  the 
I  Lord  ;  my  mouth  is  enlarged  ''  over  mine  enemies ; 
I  bccaijsc  I  rejoice  in  *  thy  salvation. 
I  2  There  is  '  none  holy  as  the  Lord  :  for  there  is 
J  none  *  besides  thee ;  neither  is  there  ..iiy  rock  like  our 
[God. 

3  Talk  no  more  so  exceeding  proudly  ;  let  7iot  ar- 
rogancy  come  out  of  your  mouth :  for  the  Lord  is  a 
God  of  knowledge,  and  by  him  actions  are  weighed. 

4  The  '■  bows  of  the  mighty  men  are  broken,  and 
they  that '  stumbled  are  girded  with  strength. 

5  They  that  were  *■  full  have  hired  out  themselves 
for  bread  ;  and  they  that  ivere  hungry  ceased  :  so  that 
the  barren  hath  •  borne  seven ;  and  she  that  hath  many 
children  is  waxed  feeble. 

6  The  Lob:d  "killeth,  and  niaketh  alive:  he bring- 
eth  down  to  the  °  grave,  and  bringeth  up. 

7  The  Lord  maketh  "  poor,  and  maketh  rich :  he 
bringeth  low,  and  liftetli  up. 

8  He  ''  raiseth  up  the  poor  out  of  tlie  dust,  and 
lifteth  up  the  beggar  from  the  dunghill,  to  set  them 
among  princes,  and  to  make  them  inherit  the  throne 
of  glory :  for  the  "  pillars  of  the  earth  arc  the  Lord's, 
and  he  hath  set  the  world  upon  tbom. 

9  He  will  keep  the  '  feet  of  his  saints,  and  the 
v\'icked  shall  be  '  silent  in  darkness ;  for  '  by  strength 
shall  no  man  prevail. 

10  The  adversaries  of  the  Lord  shall  be  "  broken 
ho  pieces ;  oui  of  heaven  shall  he  thunder  upon  them :

Samuel  telleth  his  vision  to  Eli. 
B«for«    which ''  1  have  spoken  conccrn'mg  his  house :  when  I 
Hy.'iuJ  beAinj  I  will  also  make  an  cncl. 

13  For  I  have 'told  him,  that  I  will  "judge  his 
house  for  ever,  for  the  iniquity  which  he^knowcth  ; 
because  his  sons  f  matle  themselves  vile,  and  he  re- 

i  ch.  2, 29.  strained  them  not. 

14  And  therefore  I  have  sworn  unto  the  house  of 
Eli,  that  the  iniquity  of  Eli's  house  shall "  not  be 
l»urgcd  with  sacrifice  nor  offering  for  ever. 

15  H  And  Samuel  lay  until  the  morning,  and  open- 
ed the  doors  of  the  house  of  the  Lord  :  and  Samuel 
"feared  to  shew  Eli  the  vision. 

IG  Then  Eli  called  Samuel,  and  said,  Samuel,  my 
son.     And  he  answered.  Here  am  I. 

17  And  he  said,  What  is  the  thing  that  the  LORD 
hath  said  unto  thee  ?  I  pray  thee  hide  it  not  from  me : 

iRmhi.iT.  I'God  do  so  to  thee,  and  more  also,  if  thou  hide  anij 
thing  from  me  of  all  the  things  that  he  said  unto  thee. 

18  And  Samuel  told  him  every  whit,  and  hid  noth- 
ing from  him.  And  he  said.  It  is  the  Lord  :  ''  let 
liimdowhat  seemeth  him  good. 

19  H  And  Samuel  grevv^  and  the  Lord  was  with 
him,  and  did  let '  none  of  his  words  fall  to  the  ground. 

20  And  all  Israel,  from  '  Dan  even  to  Beer-sheua, 
knew  that  Samuel  ivas  established  to  be  a  prophet  of 
the  Lord. 

21  And  the  Lord  appeared  again  in  Shiloh :  for 
the  Lord  revealed  himself  to  Samuel  in  Shiloh '  by 
the  word  of  the  Lord.

CHAPTER  IV....  V.  The  death  of  Eli  and  his  son 

10  And  the  Philistines  fought;  and  Israel 
smitten,  and  they  fled  every  man  into  his "  tent 
there  was  a  very, great'' slaughter ;  for  there  fell  of ,  .  ,, , 
Israel  thirty  thousand  footmen.  a'  '"'"^ 

1 1  And  the  "  ark  of  God  w  as  taken  ;  and  the  two  IJ*'"^  '•• 
sonsofJ^li,  Hophniand  Phinelias,  were  "■  slain.  nr..i..,up. 

12  And  there  ran  a  man  of  Benjamin  out  of  the  i»«i«hi'u,^ 
armv,  and  came  to  Shiloh  the  same  day,  witli  his  y^r^t^. 
clothes'  rent,  and  with  earth  *  upon  his  head.  j«ii.ic,(j. 

13  And  vv hen  he  came,  lo,  Eli  sat  u|)on  a  seat  by  '•''^»>**- 
the  way-side,  watching:  for  his  heart  trembled  for  »•'"•''•'.' 
the  ark  of  God.     And  when  the  man  came  into  the  rjsom.i.i 
city,  and  told  it,  all  the  city  crie<l  out. 

14  And  when  I'^li  heard  the  noise  of  the  crying,  he 
said.  What  mcaneth  the  noise  of  this  tumult  ?  and  the 
man  came  in  hastily,  and  told  Eli. 

15  Now  Eli  was  ninety  and  eight  years  old  ;  and 
his  (vj'cs  were  dim,  that  he  could  not  see. 

16  And  the  man  said  unto  Eli,  I  am  he  that  came 
out  of  the  army,  and  I  fled  to-day  out  of  the  arm)'. 
And  he  said.  What  is  there  done,  mv  soji  ? 

17  And  tlie  messenger  answered  and  said,  Israel 
is  fled  before  the  Philistines ;  and  there  hath  k'cn  also 
a  great  slaughter  among  the  pcoi)le ;  and  thy  two 
sons  also,  Hophni  and  Phinelias,  are  dead  ;  and  the 
ark  of  God  is  taken. 

1 8  And  it  came  to  nass,  when  he  made  mention  of 
the  ark  of  God,  that  lie  fell  from  oiH^the  seat  back- 
ward, by  the  side  of  the  "  gate ;  Juid  his  *  neck  brake, 
and  he  died  ;  for  he  was  an  old  man,  and  hea\y :  and

the  *  word  of  Samuel  f  came  to  all  Israel 
Now  Israel  went  out  against  the  Philistines  to 
battle,  and  pitched  beside  Eben-ezer ;  and  the  Phi- 
listines pitched  in  •"  Aphek. 

2  And  the  Philistines  put  themselves  in  array 
against  Israel :  and  when  they  t  joined  battle,  °  Israel 
was  smitten  before  the  Philistines ;  and  they  slew  of 
the  army  in  the  field  about  four  thousand  men. 

3  And  when  the  people  w;ere  come  into  the  camp, 
the  elders  of  Israel  said,  "^  ^Vherefore  hath  the  Lord 
smitten  us  to-day  before  die  Philistines  ?  Let  us  fetch 
the  *  ark  of  the  covenant  of  the  Lord  out  of  Shiloh 
unto  us,  that,  when  it  cometh  among  us,  it  may '  save 
us  out  of  the  hand  of  our  enemies. 

4  So  the  people  sent  to  Shiloh,  that  they  might 
bring  from  thence  the  ark  of  the  covenant  of  the  Lord 
of*  hosts,  which  dvvelleth ''  between  the  cherubims : 
and  the  '  two  sons  of  Eli,  Ilophni  and  Phinehas,  icere 
there  with  the  ark  of  the  covenant  of  God. 

5  And  when  the  ark  of  the  covenant  of  the  Lord 
came  into  the  camp,  all  Israel ''  shouted  with  a  great 
shout,  so  that  the  earth  rang  again. 

6  And  when  the  Philistines  heard  the  noise  of  the 
shout,  they  said,  What  meaneth  the  noise  of  this  great 
shout  in  the  camp  of  the  Hebrews  ?  And  they  under- 
stootl  that  the  ark  of  the  Lord  was  come  into  the

the  children  of  Israel  heard  it,  they  were  p  afraid  of 

the  Philistines. 

8  And  the  children  of  Israel  said  to  Samuel,  f  Cea.se 
not  to  cry  unto  the  Lord  our  God  for  us,  that  he  will 
save  us  out  of  the  hand  of  the  Philistines. 

9  And  Samuel  took  a  sucking  lamb,  and  offered  it

.hap.  2, 10.  (lay  upon  the  Philistines, and  'discomfited  them  ;  and 

they  were  smitten  before  Israel. 

1 1  And  the  men  of  Israel  went  out  of  Mizpeh,  and 

pursued  the  Philistines,  and  smote  them,  until  tkcy

14  And  the  cities  which  the  Philistines  had  taken 
from  Israel  were  restored  to  Israel,  from  Ekron  even 
unto  Gath  ;  and  the  coasts  thereof  did  Israel  deliver 
out  of  the  hands  of  the  Philistines.  And  there  was 
'  peace  between  Israel  and  the  Amorites.

CHAPTER  VIU. 

By  occasion  of  tlio  ill  government  of  Samuel's  .sons,  the  Israel-

AND  it  came  to  pass,  when  Samuel  was  old,  that 
he  *  made  his  sons  judges  over  Israel. 
2  Now  the  name  of  his  first-born  was  "  Joel,  and 
rrim.'6;}3:  the  name  of  his  second  Ablah :  they  were  judges  in 
eDeut-ie,  Beer-sheba. 

'9        '      3  And  his  sons '  walked  not  in  his  ways,  but  turned 
aside  after ''  lucre,  and  *  took  bribes,  and  perverted 
judgment, 
c  D»ut.  17,      ^  Then  all  the  elders  of  Israel  gathered  themselves 
'<        '  together,  and  came  to  Samuel  unto  Ramah,

thy  sons  walk  not  in  thy  wajrs :  now  ^  make  us  a  king

10  And  Samuel  told  all  the  words  of  the  Lord 
unto  the  people  that  asked  of  him  a  king. 

1 1  And  he  said.  This  will  be  the  manner  of  the

1  his  chariots. 

12  And  he  will  appoint  him  captains  over  thou- 
sands, and  captains  over  fifties,  and  will  set  them  to 
ear  his  ground,  and  to  reap  his  liarvest,and  to  make 
his  instruments  of  war,  and  instruments  of  his  chariots. 

13  And  he  will  take  your  daughters  to  be  confec- 
tionaries,  and  to  be  cooks,  and  to  be  bakers. 

14  And  he  will  take  your  fields,  and  your  vine- 
yards, and  your  oliveyaras,  even  the  best  of  them,  and  ch.ip, 
give  them  to  "i  his  servants.  „  or,  «.u,. 

\'o  And  he  will  take  the  tenth  of  your  seed,  and  of  ij'.',!: 
your  vineyards,  and  give  to  his  f|  ouicers,  and  to  his

16  And  he  will  take  your  men-servants,  and  your

your  asses,  and  put  iliem  to  his  work.  , ,  t  „,  ,

19  Nevertheless,  the  people  "  refused  to  obey  the  '*"""'  ■'-^

21  And  Samuel  heard  all  the  words  of  the  people,  ^  "'''*'" 
and  he  rehearsed  them  in  the  ears  of  the  liOno. 

22  And  the  Lord  said  to  Samuel,  Hearken  unto 
their  voice,  and  make  them  a  king.  And  Samuel 
said  imto  the  men  of  Israel,  Go  ye  every  man  unto 
his  city.

asses :  and  when  wc  saw  that  they  were  no  where,  we  \ 
came  to  Saniuel. 

15  And  Saul's  uncle  said,  Tell  ine,  I  pray  thee, 
w  hat  Samuel  said  unto  you. 

16  And  Saul  said  unto  his  uncle,  He  told  us  plainly 
that  the  asses  were  found.     But  of  the  matter  of  the  !: 
kingdom,  whereof  Samuel  snake,  he  told  "  him  not. 

17  It  And  Samuel  called  tlie  people  together  *  unto 
the  LoKD  to  >' Mizpeh  ; 

115  And  said  unto  the  children  of  Israel.  Thussaith 
the  Lord  God  of  Israel,  *  I  brought  up  Israel  out  of 
Egypt,  and  delivered  you  out  of  the  hand  of  the  Kgy|)- 
tians,  and  out  of  the  hand  of  all  kingdoms,  and  of 
them  that  oi)pressed  you  : 

19  And  ye  iiave  this  day  '  rejected  your  God.  who  i: 
himself  saved  you  out  of  all  your  adversities  and  your  ! 
tribulations  ;  and  ye  have  ''  said  unto  him,  JNuy,  but 
set  a  king  over  us.  Now  therefore  pre.sent  yourselves 
before  the  Lord  by  your '  tribes,  and  by  yoiu*  '^  thou- 
sands. 

20  And  when  Samuel  had  caused  all  the  tribes  of 
Israel  *  to  come  near,  the  tribe  of  Benjamin '  was  taken. 

21  When  he  hail  caused  the  tribe  of  Benjamin  to 
come  near  by  their  families,  the  family  of  Matri  was 
taken,  and  Saul,  the  son  of  Kish,  was  taken :  and 
when  they  sought  him,  he  could  *  not  be  found. 

22  Therefore  they ''  inquired  of  the  Lord  further, 
if  the  man  should  yet  come  thither.  And  the  Lord 
answered,  Behold,  he  hath  '  hid  himself  among  the 
stuff. 

23  And  they  ran  and  fetched  him  thence :  and 
when  he  stood  among  the  people,  he  was ''  higher  than 
any  of  the  people,  from  his  shoulders  and  ujjward. 

24  And  Samuel  said  to  all  the  people.  See  ye  him 
'  whom  the  Lord  hath  chosen,  that  there  is  none  like 
him  anriong  all  the  people.^  And  allthe  people  shouted, 
and  said,  God  save  die  king ! 

25  Then  Samuel  told  the  people  the ""  manner  of 
the  kingdom,  and  wrote  it  in  a  book,  and  laid  it  up 
before  the  Lord.  And  Samuel  sent  all  the  people 
away,  every  man  to  his  house. 

26  And  Saul  also  went  home  to "  Gibcah ;  and  there 
went  with  him  a  band  of  men,  whose  hearts  God  had 
touched. 

27  But  the  children  of  Belial  said.  How  shall  this 
man  save  us  ?  And  they  despised  him,  and  brought 
him  P  no  presents :  but  he  "^  held  his  peace. 

CHAPTER  XL

4  Then  came  the  messengers  to  '  GilH-ah  of  Saul, 
and  told  the  tidings  in  the  ears  of  the  people  :  and  all 
the  people  lifted  up  their  voict  s,  and  wept.

Tluisshall  ye  say  unto  the  men  of  Jabesh-gilead,  To-

10  Therefore  the  men  of  Jabesh  said,  To-morrow 
'"  we  \N  ill  come  out  unto  you,  and  ye  shall  do  with  us 
all  that  seenieth  good  unto  jou. 

11  And  it  was  .so  on  the  "  morrow,  that  Saul  put  il;,imi(!,i

13  And  Saul  said.  There  shall  "■  not  a  man  be  put

salvation  in  Israel. 

14  Then  said  Sarnucl  to  the  people.  Come,  and 
let  us  go  to '  Gilgal,  and  renew  the  kingdom  there. 

15  And  all  the  people  went  to  Gilgal ;  and  there 
they  made  Saul '  king  before  the  IjORD  in  Gilgal :  and 
there  they  sacrificed  sacrifices  of  |)eace-offerings  be-

Israel  rejoiced  greatly.

bare  his  armour, »  Come,  and  let  us  go  over  to  the 
Philistines'  garrison  that  is  on  the  other  side.  But

36  And  Saul  said,  Let  us  go  down  after  the  Phi- 
listines by  night,  and  spoil  them  until  the  morning 
li,i;;ht,  and  iot  us  not  leave  a  man  of  them.  And  they 
said.  Do  whatsoever  seemeth  good  unto  thee.  Then 
said  the  priest.  Let  us  "  draw  near  hither  unto  God. 

'        37  And  Saul  '  asked  counsel  of  God,  Shall  I  go 
>.'■  down  after  thp  Philistines?  wilt  thou  deliver  them  into 

the  hand  of  Israel  ?  But  he  "  answered  him  not  that 

da  . 

38  And  Saul  said ,  Dra\v  ye  near  hither  all  the  f  chief 
of  the  people ;  and  know  and  see  "  wherein  this  sin 
hath  been  this  day: 

39  For,  as  the  Lord  liveth,  which  saveth  Israel, 
thougji  It  be  in  Jonathan  my  son,  he  shall  surely  die. 
But  there  woi:  not  a  man  among  all  the  people  that 
answered  him. 

40  Then  said  he  unto  all  Israel,  Be  ye  on  one  side, 
and  I  and  Jonathan  my  son  will  be  on  the  other  side. 
And  the  people  sa;d  unto  Saul,  Do  what  seemet'i 
good  unto  thee. 

41  Tlierefore  Saul  said  unto  the  Lord  God  of  Is- 
rael, t  Give  a  perfect  ht.  And  Saul  and  Jonathan 
were  taken  :  but  the  pv-i-ople  escaped. 

42  And  Saul  said.  Cast  lots  between  me  and  Jon?, 
than  my  son.     And  Jonathan  was  taken. 

'53  Then  Saul  said  to  Jonathan,  tell  me  what  thou 
mst  done.  And  Jonathan  told  him,  and  said,  I  did 
but  laste  a  little  honey  with  the  end  of  the  rod  that 
toas  in  mine  hand,  and,  lo,  I  must  die. 

44  And  Saul  answered,  "  God  do  so,  and  more 
also :  ior  thou  .shalt  surely  p  die,  Jonathan. 

45  And  the  people  said  unto  Saul,  Shall  Jonathan

Samuel  sendeth  Saul  to  destroy  Aninlek. 

SAMUEL  also  said  uiit  Saul,  The  Lord  *sent 
me  to  anoint  thee  to  be  king  over  his  people,  over 
Israel :  now  therefore  ^  hearken  tliou  unto  the  \oice 
of  the  words  of  the  Lord. 

2  Thus  saith  the "  Lord  of  hosts,  "^  I  vcmcmhcx  that 
which  Amaiek  did  to  Israel,  how  he  *  laid  ivait  lor 
him  in  the  way  when  he  came  up  from  Egypt. 

3  Now  go,  and  smite  Amaiek,  and  'utterly  destroy 
all  that  they  have,  and  spare  them  not ;  but  slay  both 
man  and  woman,  infant  and  suckling,  ^ox  and  sheep, 
camel  and  ass. 

4  And  Saul  gathered  the  people  together,  and 
numbered  them  in  ''  Telaim,  two  hundred  thousand 
footmen,  and  '  ten  tl.ousand  men  of  Judali. 

5  And  Saul  came  to  a  city  of  Amaiek,  and  laid 
wait  in  the  ''  valiey. 

6  And  Saul  said  unto  the  '  Kenites,  ™  Go,  depart, 
"get you  down  from  among  the  Amalekites,  lest  1  '«•"  ^

Saul's  humiliation.  CHAPTCR  XVI. 

14  And  Samuel  said.  What  ;;ica;id/t  then  this  bleat- 
ing of  the  sheep  in  nunc  cars,  and  the  lowing  of  the 
-^  '*-'  oxen  which  1  hear  .'' 

13  And  Saul  said,  They  have  brought  them  from 
the  Anialekites :  for  the '  people  s[iared  the  best  of  the 
vmea'"^'  shcej)  and  of  the  oxen,  to  ''  sacrilice  unto  the  Lord 
thy  God ;  and  the  rest  we  have  utterly  destroyed. 

16  Then  Samuel  said  unto  Saul,  Stay,  and  I  will 
tell  thee  what  the  Lord  hath  said  to  me  this  night. 
And  he  said  unto  him.  Say  on. 

17  And  Samuel  said.  When  thou  ivast  *  little  in 
thine  own  sight,  wast  thou  not  made  the  head  of  the 
tribes  of  Israel,  and  the  Lord  anointed  thee  king 
over  Israel  ? 

18  Andthf  Lord  sent  thee  onajournCT,  and  said, 
Go,  and  utter.y  destroy  the  'sinners  the  Anialekites, 
and  fight  against  them  until  they  be  consumed. 

1 9  vVher'^lbre  then  didst  thou  not  obey  the  voice  of 
the  Lord,  but  didst  ^  fly  upon  the  spoil,  and  didst  evil 

vr^vifs^:  i»  the  sight  of  the  Lord  f 

'  '■•'  20  And  Saul  said  unto  Samuel,  Yea,  I  have  obe.ved 
the  voice  of  the  Lord,  and  have  gone  the  way  which 
tb.e  Lord  sent  me,  and  have  brought ''  Agag  the  king 
of  Amalek,and  have  utterly  destroyed  the  Amalekites. 

21  But  the  '  people  took  of  the  spoil,  sheep  and 
oxen,  the  chief  of  the  things  which  should  have  been 
utterlv  destroyed,  to  sacrihce  unto  the  Lord  thy  God 
in  Gilgal. 

22  AndSamucl  said,  Hath  the  Lord  as  great  ^  de- 
light in  burnt-offerings  and  sacrifices  as  in  obeyhig  the 
voice  of  the  Lord  ?  Behold,  '  to  obey  is  better  than 
sacrifice;,  atid  to  hearken,  than  the  fat  of  rams. 

23  For  "■  rebellion  is  -.s  "  the  sin  of  witchcraft,  v"d 
in  Joib.  22,  stubbornness  is  as  iniquity  and  idolatry.     Because

33  And  Samuel  came  no  more "  to  seo  Saul  until 
the  day  of  his  death  :  nevertheless  Samuel  mourned  ... 
for  Saul :  and  the  Lord  repented  that  he  had  made

it,he  will  kill  me.  And  the  Lord  said,  Take  a  heifer  ;-;,, ,"  \

DuJid  accepteth  the  challenge, 

15  But  David  ||  went  and  returned  from  Saul  to    Ber.,„. 
feed  his  father's  sheep  at  Beth-lehem.  ^"'rJI? 

16  And  the  Philistme  drew  near  morning  and  eve-  ^— ^-■^- 
ning,  and  presented  himself  forty  days.  I'o^,^' )■„. 

17  And  Jesse  said  unto  David  his  son.  Take  now  ^'aTplh, , 
for  thy  brethren  an  ''  ephah  of  this  parched  corn,  and  f,;',.£!J*^' ■ 
these  ten  loaves,  and  run  to  the  camp  to  thy  brethren :  w,"" 

18  And  carry  these  ten  cheeses  unto  the  captain  of ""'"' 
iAw  thousand,  and  look  how  thy  brethren  fare,  and  Suf'^  "' 
take  their  pledge. 

19  Now  Saul,  and  they,  and  all  the  men  of  Israel, 
ivere  in  the  valley  of  Elah,  lighting  with  the  Philistines. 

20  And  David  rose  uj)  early  in  the  morning,  and 
left  the  sheep  with  a  keeper,  and  took,  and  went  as 
Jesse  had  commanded  him  :  and  he  came  to  the 

II  trench  as  the  host  was  going  forth  to  the '  light,  and  "  "■'v";;"' 
shouted  for  the  battle.  pHl^l}':., 

21  For  Israel  and  the  Philistines  had  put  the  battle  e'mp.'ac,  l 
in  array,  army  against  army. 

22  And  David  left  his  carriage  in  the  hand  oi  the 
keeper  of  the  carriage,  and  ran  into  the  army,  and 
came  and  f  saluted  his  brethren. 

23  And  as  he  talked  with  them,  behold,  there  came  ?ren!°3'7;ii 
up  the  champion  (the  Philistine  of  Gath,  Goliath  by  m,u.  i'J.jT 
name)  out  ofthe  armies  of  the  Philistines,  and  spake  Lukeivi. 
according  to  the  same  words :  and  David  heard  them,  ,  „^^  ^,^, 

24  And  all  the  men  of  Israel,  when  they  saw  the  j/"^  *'-«'' 
man,  f  fled  from  him,  and  were  sore  afraid. 

25  And  the  men  of  Israel  said,  Have  ye  seen  tliis

up :  and  it  shall  be,  that  the  man  who  killeth  him,  the

5  And  he  had  a  helmet  of  brass  upon  his  head,  and 
he  ivas  armed  wit!i  a  coat  of  mail ;  and  the  weight  of 
the  cotit  %cas  five  thousand  shekels  of  brass. 

6  And  he  had  greaves  of  brass  upon  his  legs,  and 
a  target  of  brass  between  his  shoulders. 

7  And  the  staff  of  his  spear  ivas  like  a  weaver's 
beam,  and  his  spear's  head  ti'ei^/i«/ six  hundred  she- 
kelsof  iron :  and  one  bearing  a  shield  went  before  him. 

8  And  he  stood  and  cried  unto  the  armic.  of  Israel, 
and  said  unto  them,  Why  are  ye  come  out  to  set  pour 

#  battle  in  array  ?  Am  not  I  a  Philistine,  and  you  ser- 
vants to  Saul  ?  choose  you  a  man  fcr  you,  ;uid  let  him 
come  down  to  me. 

9  If  he  be  able  lo  fight  with  me,  and  to  kill  me, 
then  will  we  be  your  servants :  but  if  I  prevail  against 
him,  and  kill  him,  then  shall  ye  be  our  servants,  and 

r2SMi.2i,  serve  us. 

10  And  the  Philistines  said,  *  I  defy  the  armies  of 
Israel  this  day :  give  me  a  man,  that  we  may  fight 
together. 

1 1  When  Saul  and  all  Israel  heard  those  words  of 
the  Philistine,  they  were  dismayed,  and  greatly  afraid. 

12  H  Now  David  was'  the  son  of  that  Ephrathite 
s  I  oir.  2,  of  Beth-lehem-judah,  whose  name  was  Jesse;  and  .he 

had « eight  sons :  and  the  man  went  among  men  for 
an  old  man  in  tlie  days  of  Saul. 

13  And  the  three  ''  ieldest  soift  of  Jesse  went  and 
followed  Saul  to  the  battle :  and  the  names  of  his

26  And  David  spake  to  the  men  that  stood  by  him, 
saying,  What  shall  be  done  to  the  man  that  killetli 
this  Philistine,  and  taketh  away  the  "  reproach  from 
Israel?  for  who /.s  this  uncircumcised  Philistine,  that  'tD'^'  '» 
he  should  defy  the  armies  ofthe "  living  God  ? 

27  And  the  peo])!c  answered  him  after  this  manner, 
saying,  So  shall  it  be  done  to  the  man  that  killeth 
liim. 

28  And  Eliab,  his  eldest  brother,  heard  when  he  R,,^,'' ,'; ',', 
spake  unto  the  men;  and  Eliab's  ^  anger  was  kin-  JiaiiiS.'ji

that  thou  mightcst  sec  the  battle.  '  voi«  ir 

29  And  David  said,  What  have  I  now  done  ?  '  Is 
there  not  a  cause  ? 

30  And  he  turned  from  him  toward  another,  and  |,*';/' 
spake  after  the  t  same  manner :  and  the  people  mi-  ;^;"'g  "

he  put  a  helmet  of  brass  upon  his  head ;  also  he  armed  ?

AN  p  it  carne  to  pass,  when  he  had  made  an  end 
of  speaking  unto  Saul,  that  the  soul  of  Jona-  ... 
than  was  "  knit  with  the  soul  of  David  ;  and  Jonathan  J!;, 
lo\  ed  him  as  hih  own  soul. 

2  And  Saul  took  him  ''that  day,  and  would  let  him 
go  no  mor'i  home  to  his  father's  house. 

3  Then  Jonathan  and  David  made  a  covenant,  be- 
cause he  loved  him  as  his  own  soul. 

4  And  Jonathan  stripped  himself  of  the  robe  that 
ivas  upon  him,  and  gave  it  to  David,  and  hisprments, 
even  to  his  sword,  and  to  his  bow,  and  to  his  girdle. 

5  And  David  went  out  whithersoever  Saul  sent 
him,  and  tehaved  himself''  wisely :  and  Saul  set  him 
oyer  the  men  of  war ;  and  he  was  accepted  in  the 
sight  of  all  the  peoi)le,  and  also  in  the  sight  of  Saul's

avoided  out  of  his  presence  twice.

CHAPTER  XXIII. 

David  inquiring  of  tlie  Lord  by  Abiathar,  rcscucth  Kcilali, 

THEN  » they  told  David,  saying.  Behold,  the  Phi- 1 
listines  light  against  '''Keilah,  and  they  rob  the  I 
threshing-floors.  I 

2  Therefore  David  °  inquired  of  the  Lord,  saying,  5 
Shall  I  go  and  smite  these  Philistines .''  And  the  Loud  | 
said  unto  David,  Go,  and  smite  the  Philistines,  and  5 
save  Keilah.  I 

3  And  David's  men  said  unto  him,  Behold,  we  be  j 
afraid  here  in  Judah  :  ''  how  much  more  then  if  we  J 
come  to  Keilah  against  the  armies  of  the  Philistines .''  | 

4  Then  David  inquired  of  the  Lord  *  yet  attain.  5 
And  the  Lord  answered  him,  and  said.  Arise,  godo^vn  t 
to  Keilah ;  for  I  will  deliver  the  Philistines  into  thine  I 
hand.  I 

5  So  David  and  his  men  went  to  Keilah,  and  fought  i 
with  the  Philistines,  and  brought  away  their  cattl(>,  j 
and  smote  them  \vith  a  great  slaughter.  So  David  { 
saved  the  inhabitants  of  Keilah.  5 

6  And  it  came  to  pass,  when  Abiathar  the  son  of  s

a  town  that  hath  gates  and  bars.  i 

8  And  Saul  called  all  the  people  together  to  war,  i 
to  go  down  to  Keilah,  to  besiege  David  a:id  liis  I

\'\  And  David  said  unto  him,  How  wast  thou  '  not  iNam.u,* 
afraid  to  stretch  forth  thine  hand  "to  destroy  "  the 
Lord's  anointcil .'' 

15  And  David  called  one  of  thi!  yoimc;  men,  and 
said,  til)  near,  and  fall  upon  him.  And  lie  "smote 
him  that  he  died. 

10  Aiul  David  said  unto  him,  ^  Thy  blood  he  upon 
thy  head:  for  thj,-  mouth  hath  testified  against  thee, 
sa)  ins,  I  have  slain  the  Lord's  anointed. 

17  y\nd  David  lamented  M_ith''this  lamentation 
over  Saul  and  over  Jonathan  his  son  : 


Amalekites,  and  David  had  abode  "  t\\o  days  in 

^*'^'')*^ '  ...,111 

2  It  came  even  to  pass  on  the  third  day,  that,  be- 
hold, a  man  came  out  of  the  camp  from  Saul,  with 
liis' clothes  rent,  and ''earth  upon  his  head:  and  so 
it  was,  when  he  came  to  David,  that  he  fell  to  the 
earth,  and  did  obeisance. 

3  And  David  said  unto  him.  From  whence  coniest 
thou  ?  And  he  said  unto  him.  Out  of  the  camp  of  Is- 
rael am  1  escaped. 

4  And  David  said  unto  him.  How  went  the  matter.'* 
I  pray  thee,  tell  me.     And  he  answered, '" 
people  are  tied  from  the  battle,  and  many  of  the  peo- 
ple also  are  fallen  and  dead  ;  and  Saul  and  Jonathan 
his  son  are  dead  also. 

5  And  David  said  unto  the  young  man  that  told  ^ 
him,  *"  How  knowest  thou  that  Saul  and  Jonathan  his  \  lest  the  "  daughters  of  tlnMincircumcised  iriumi)h 
son  be  dead .'' 

6  And  the  youns  man  that  told  him  said,  t  As  I 
hapi)ened  by  chance  upon  mount '  Gilboa,  behold. 
Saul  leaned  upon  his  spear ;  and,  lo,  the  chariots  ami 
horsemen  f  followed  hard  after  him. 

7  And  when  he  looked  behind  him  he  saw  me,  and 
called  unto  me :  and  I  answered,  here  am  I. 

8  And  he  said  unto  me,  Who  «»/  thou  ?  And  I  an- 
swered him,  I  am  *  an  Amalekite, 

9  " 
me, 
cause  my  lil'e  is  yet  whole  in  ine 

10  So  I  stood  upon  him,  and  "  slew  him,  because 
I  was  sure  that  he  could  not  live  after  that  he  was 
fallen :  and  I  took  the  crown  that  war,  upon  his  head, 
and  the  bracelet  that  loas  on  his  arm,  and  have 
broujsjht  them  hither  unto  my  lord. 

11  Then  David  took  hold  ou  lils  clothes,  and 
'rent them  ;  and  likewise  all  the  men  that  iccre  with 
him :  j     ^ 

12  And  they ''  mourned,  and  wept,  and  fasted  until  \  of  war  perished  !

^  anointed  with  oil. 

22  From  the  blood  of  the  slain,  from  the  fat  of  the

name :  and  it  is  called  unto  this  day,  A  bsalom's  Place. 

19  Then  said  Ahimaaz  the  son  of  Zadok,  Let  me 
now  run  and  bear  the  king  tidings,  how  that  the 
Lord  hath  f  avenged  him  of  his  enemies. 

20  And  Joab  said  unto  him,  t  Thou  shalt  not  bear 
tidings  this  day,  but  thou  shalt  bear  tidings  another 
day :  but  this  day  thou  shalt  bear  no  tidings,  because 
the  king's  sun  is  dead. 

21  Then  said  Jo:ib  to  ||  Cushi,  Go  tell  the  king  what 
thou  hast  seen.  And  Cu.shi  bowed  himself  unto  Joab, 
and  ran. 

22  Then  said  Ahimaaz  the  son  of  Zadok,  yet  again 
to  Joab,  But,  howsoever,  let  me,  I  pray  thee,  also  run 
after  Cushi.  And  Joab  said,  Wherefore  wilt  thou 
run,  my  son,  seeing  that  thou  hast  no  tidings  ready  ? 

23  But,  howsoc^  er,  aaid  he,  let  me  nm.  And  he 
said  tmto  him,  Run.  Then  Ahimaaz  ran  by  the  way 
oi'the  plain,  and  overran  Cushi. 

24  And  JDavid  sat  between  the  *  two  gates :  and 
the  watchman  went  up  to  the  roof  over  the  gate  unto 
the  wall,  and  lifted  up  his  eyes,  and  looked,  and,  be- 
hold, a  man  running  alone. 

2.5  And  the  watchman  cried,  and  told  the  king. 
And  the  king  said.  If  lie  be  alone,  there  is  tidings  in 
his  mouth.     And  lie  came  apace,  and  drew  near. 

26  And  the  watchman  saw  another  man  running, 
and  the  watchman  called  unto  the  porter,  and  said, 
Uehold,  another  man  rimning  ;Uone.  And  the  king

of  my  lord  the  king,  and  all  that  ri.si;  against  tiiee  to 
do  thee  hurt,  be  as  that  young  man  is. 

33  And  the  king  was  nuich  moved,  and  went  up  to 
the  chamber  oyer  the  gate,  and  we|>t ;  and  as  he 
went,  thus  he  said,  O  my  son  Absjdorn  !  niy  son,  my

Jonb  cniisetli  the  kin;;  to  ceiuf:  liiii  mourning. 

AND  it  was  tohl  Joab,  Behold,  the  khig  weepetli 
and  mourneth  for  Ab.salom. 

2  And  the  f  victory  that  day  was  turned  into 
'moiu-ningunto  all  the  people  :  tor  the  people  heard 
say  that  day  how  the  king  was  grieved  for  his  son. 

3  And  the  peonle  gat  them  by  stealth  that  day  into 
the  city,  as  people  Ix'ing  ashamed  steal  away  when 
they  flee  in  battle. 

4  Butthe  king  "covered  his  face.and  the  king  cried 
with  a  loud  voice,  O  my  son  Absalom  !  O  Absalom, 
my  son,  my  son ! 

5  And  Joab  came  intotne  hou.se  to  the  king,  and 
said.  Thou  hast  shamed  this  day  the  faces  of  all  thy 
servants,  which  this  day  have  saved  thy  life,  and  the 
lives  of  thy  .sons,  and  of  thy  daughters,  and  the  lives 
of  thy  wives,  and  the  lives  of  thy  concubines  ; 

6  In  that  thou  lovest  thine  enemies,  and  hatest  thy 
friends:  for  thou  hast  declared  this  day,  t  that  thou 
regardest  neither  princes  nor  servants :  for  this  day  I 
perceive,  that  if  Absalom  had  lived,  and  all  we  had 
died  this  day,  then "  it  had  i)leased  thee  well. 

7  Now  therefore,  arise,  go  forth,  and  speak  f  com- 
fortably unto  thy  servants :  for  1  swear  by  the  Loan, 
if  thou  go  not  forth,  there  will  not  tarry  "^  one  with  thee 
this  night :  and  that  will  be  worse  unto  thee  than  all 
the  evil  that  befell  thee  from  thy  >;outh  until  now. 

8  Then  the  king  aro.se,  and  sat  in  the  "  gate.  And 
they  told  unto  all  the  peoi)Ie,  saying.  Behold,  the  king 
doth  sit  in  the  gate.  And  all  the  people  came  before 
the  king  ;  '  for  Israel  had  fled,  every  man  to  his  tent. 

9  And  all  the  people  were  ^  at  strife  throughout  all 
the  tribes  of  Israel,  saying.  The  king  saved  us  out  of 
the  hand  of  our  enemies,  and  he  delivered  us  out  ol' 
the  hand  of  the  Philistines  ;  and  now  he  is  fled  out  of 

'<  the  land  for  Absalom. 

I     10  And  Absalom,  whom ''  we  anointed  over  us,  is 

5  dead  in  battle.     Now,  therefore,  why  f  speak  ye  not 

i^a  word  of  bringing  the  king  back .'' 
1 1  And  king  David  sent  to '  Zadok  and  to  Abiathar 
the  priests,  saying.  Speak  unto  the  elders  of  Judah, 
saying.  Why  are  ye  "the  last  to  brine  the  kiiig  back 
to  his  house .''  seeing  the  speech  of  all  Israel  is  come 
to  the  king,  even  to  his  house.

24  Now  therefore,  (W  the  Lord  liveth,  which  liath 
established  me,  and  '  set  mc  on  the  throne  of  David

Ner,  and  unto  Amasa  the  son  ot  Jether,  whom  he   the  son  of  Jehoiada ;  and  he  "fell  upon  him  that  he  k:

26  And  unto  Abiathar  the  priest  said  the  king.  Get 'J" '•'•

AT  *  that  time  Abijah  the  son  of  Jeroboam  "  fell

and  a  cruse  of  honey,  and  go  to  him :  he  shall  tell 
thee  what  shall  become  of  the  child. 

4  And  Jeroboam's  wife  did  so,  and  arose,  and  went 
j"'kh'"°'  to  Shiloh  ;  and  came  to  the  house  of  Ahijah.     But 

Ahijah  could  not  see,  for  his  eyes  t  were  set  by  reason 
of  his  age. 

5  And  *  the  Lord  said  unto  Ahijah,  Behold,  the 
wife  of  Jeroboam  cometh  to  ask  a  thing  of  thee  for 
her  son,  for  he  is  sick  :  thus  and  thus  snalt  thou  say

in  the  book  of  the  Chronicles  of  the  kings  of  Israel.

24  And  there  were  also  Sodomites  in  the  land 
and  they  did  according  to  all  the  abominations  of  the 
nations  which  the  Lord  cast  out  before  the  children 
of  Israel. 

25  And  it  came  to  pass,  in  the  '  fifth  year  of  king 
Rehoboam,  that  '  Shishak  king  of  Egypt  came  up 
against  Jerusalem : 

26  And  he  took  away  the  '  treasures  of  the  house 
of  the  Lord,  and  the  treasures  of  the  king's  house ; 
he  even  took  away  all :  and  he  took  away  all  the 
shields  "  of  gold  which  Solomon  had  made.  p,  »  ■  ■; 

27  And  king  Rehoboam  made  in  their  stead  brazen  Kcci.'^a 
shields,  and  committed //icOT  unto  the  hands  of  the  chief 
of  thef  guard,  which  kept  thedoorofthe  king's  house. 

2o  And  it  was  so,  when  the  king  went  into  the 
house  of  the  Lord,  that  the  guard  bare  them,  and 
brought  them  back  into  the  guard-chamber. 

29  Now  the  rest  of  the  acts  of  Rehoboam,  and  all 
that  he  did,  are  they  not  written  in  the  book  of  the 
Chronicles  of  the  kings  of  Judah  ? 

30  And  there  was  *  war  between  Rehoboam  and 
Jeroboam  ^  all  their  days. 

31  And  Rehoboam  '^  slept  with  his  fathers,  and  was

17  And  Omri  went  up  from  Gibbethon,  and  all  J  a 
Israel  with  him,  and  they  besieged  Tirzah.  1 1 

18  And  it  came  to  pass,  when  Zimri  saw  that  the 
city  was  taken,  that  he  went  into  the  palace  of  the 
king's  house,  and  '  burnt  the  king's  house  over  him 
whh  fire,  and  died, 

19  For  his  sins  which  he  sinned  in  doing  evil  in  the 
''  sight  of  the  Lord,  in  walking  in  the  *=  way  of  Jero- 
boam, and  in  his  sin  which  he  did,  to  make  Israel  to  sin. 

20  Now  the  rest  of  the  acts  of  Zimri,  and  his  trea- 
son that  he  \vrought,  are  they  not  written  in  the  book 
of  the  Chronicles  of  the  kings  of  Israel  ? 

21  1[  Then  were  the  people  of  Israel  divided  f  into 
two  parts  :  half  of  the  people  followed  Tibni  the  son

of  Ginath,  to  make  him  king ;  and  halffollowedOmri. 


and  I  have  "  commanded  the  ''  ravens  to  feed  thee 
there. 

5  So  he  went,  and  did  according  "  unto  the  w  ord  <•  '''»•,= 
of  the  Loud  :  for  he  went  and  "^  dwelt  by  the  brook  ^''"  '"' 
Cherith,  that  is  before  Jordan. 

6  And  the  ravens  brought  him  ^  bread  and  flesh  in 
the  morning,  and  bread  and  flesh  in  the  evening :  anil 
he  drank  of  the  brook. 

7  And  it  came  to  pass, after  a  while,  that  thebrook 
dried  up,  because  there  had  been  no  rain  in  the  land. 

8  And  ""the  word  of  the  Lord  came  unto  him, 
saying, 

9  Arise, get  theeto  '  Zarephath, whicli belongethto 
Zidon,  and  dwell  there :  behold,  I  have "  commanded 
a  widow  woman  there  to  sustain  thee. 

1 0  So  he  arose,  and  went  to  Zarephath.  And  when 
he  came  to  the  gate  of  the  city,  behold,  the  widow 
woman  tms  there  g;atheringof  sticks  :  and  he  called 
to  her,  and  said, '  Fetch  me,  I  pray  thee,  a  little  water 
in  a  vessel,  that  I  may  drink.

22  But  the  people  that  followed  Omri  prevailed 
against  the  people  that  followed  Tibni  the  son  of 
Ginath  :  so  Tibni  died,  and  Omri  reigned. 

23  In  the  thirty  and  first  year  of  Asa  king  of  Judah 
began  Omri  to  reign  over  "Israel,  twelve  years :  six 
years  reigned  he  in  Tirzah.

30  And  EHjah  said  unto  all  the  people.  Come  near

And  he  repaired  the  altar  of  the  Lord  that  teas  broken

the "  number  of  the  tribes  of  the  sons  of  Jacob,  unto 
whom  the  word  of  the  Lord  came,  saying,  *  Israel 
shall  be  thy  name : 

32  And  'vith  the  stones  he  built  an  altar  ^  in  the 
name  of  the  Lord  :  and  he  made  a  trench  about  the 
altar,  f  as  great  as  would  contain  t^vo  measures  of  seed.

did  it  the  second  time.  And  he-said,  Do  it  the "  tliiid 
time  :  and  they  did  it  the  third  time. 

3.5  And  the  water  ran  round  about  the  altar ;  and 
he  filled  the  "  trench  also  with  water. 

36  And  it  came  to  pass,  at  the  time  of  the  offering 
of  the  evening  sacrifice,  that  Elijah  the  prophet  came 
near,  and.  said, "  Loiiu  Cod  of  Abraham,  Isaac,  and

38  Then  « the  fire  of  the  Lord  fell,  and  consumed 
the  burnt-sacrifice,  and  the  wood,  and  the  stones,  and

By  the  direction  of  t!>e  prophet  the  Syrians  are  slain. 

AND  '  13en-hadatt  the  king  of  Syria  gathered  all 
his  host  together:  and  there  loere  ^  thirty  and  two 
kings  with  him,  and  horses  and  chariots :  aiid  he  went 
up  and  besieged  Samaria,  and  warred  agjainst  it. 

2  And  he '  sent  messengers  to  Ahab  king  of  Israel 
intothecity,andsaid  unto  him, Thus  saithBen-hadad, 

3 ''  Thy  silver  and  thy  gold  is  mine :  thy  wives  also 
and  thy  children,  even  the  goodliest,  are  mine. 

4  And  the  king  of  Israel  answered  and  said.  My 
lord,  O  king,  according  to  thy  saying,  ^  I  uv.i  thine, 
and  all  that!  have. 


ivas  drinking  himself  drunk  in  the  pavilions,  he  and 
the  kings,  the  thirty  and  two  kings  that  helped  hinj. 

1 7  And  the  young  men  of  tlie  princes  ot  the  prov- 
inces went  out  first ;  and  Ben-hadad  sent  out,  and 
they  told  him,  saying.  There  are  men  come  out  of 
Samaria. 

18  And  he  said.  Whether  they  be  come  out  for 
l>eacc,  take  them  alive ;  or  whether  they  be  come  out 
for  war, "  take  them  alive. 

19  So  these  young  men  of  the  princes  of  the  prov- 
inces came  out  of  the  city,  and  the  army  which  fol- 
lowed them. 

20  And  they  slew  ||  every  one  his  man  :  and  the 
Syrians  *  fled  ;  and  Israel  pursued  them  :  and  Ben- 
hadad  the  king  of  Syria  escaped  on  a  horse  with  the 
horsemen. 

21  And  ''  the  king  of  Israel  went  out,  and  smote 
the  horses  and  chariots,  and  slew  the  Syrians  with  a 
great  slaughter.

thou  hastiest,  horse  for  horse,  and  chariot  for  chariot:

unto  their  voice,  and  did  so. 

2G  And  it  came  to  pass,  at  the  return  of  the  3Tar, 
that  Ben-hadad  mmibered  the  Syrians,  and  went  up 
"  to  Ai)hek,  to  fight  against  Israel. 

27  And  the  children  of  Israel  Averc  numbered,  and 
were  all  present,  and  went  against  them :  and  tlie 
children  of  Israel  pitched  before  them  like  two  little 
flocks  of  kids ;  but  the  Syrians '  filled  the  country. 

28  And  there  came  ^  a  man  of  God,  and  spake  imto 
the  kingof  Israel,  and  said.  Thus  saith  the  Lord,  ''  Be- 
cause the  Syrians  have  said.  The  Lord  is  God  of  the 
hills,  but  he  is  not  God  of  the  valleys  ;  therefore  will 
I  deliver  all  this  great  multitude  into  thine  hand,  and 
ye  shall  know  that  I  am  the  Lord. 

29  And  they  pitched  one  over  against  the  other 
'  seven  days ;  and  so  it  was,  that  in  the  seventh  day 
the  battle  was  joined :  and  the  children  of  Israel  slevv 
of  the  Syrians "  a  hundred  thousand  footmen  in  one 
day. 

30  But  the  rest  fled  to  Aphek,  into  the  city ;  and 
there  a  wall  fell  upon  twenty  and  seven  thousand  of 
the  men  tliat  were  left.  And  Ben-hadad  fled,  and 
came  into  the  city,.t  into  an  inner  chamber.

^  8  And  all  the  elders  and  all  the  people  said  unto] 
him.  Hearken  not  nnto  him, ""  nor  consent. 

9  Wherefore  he  said  unto  the  messengers  of  Ben-

for  to  thy  servant  at  the  first  I  will  do :  but  this  thing 
I  may  not  do.  And  the  messengers  departed,  and 
brought  him  word  again.

CHAPTER  I. 

Elijah  bringcih  fiio  from  heaven  upon  them  whoin  Aliazich 
sent  to  apprehend  him. 

THEN "  Moab  "  rebelled  against  Israel  aftd  "  the 
death  of  Ahab. 

2  And  Ahaziah  fell  down  through  a  lattice  iii  his 
upper  chamber  that  tvas  in  Samaria,  and ''  wa.s  sick : 
and  he  sent  messengers,  and  said  unto  them,  Go,  in- 
quire of  Baal-zebub,  the  god  of  *  Ekron,  whether  I 
shall  recover  of  this  disease. 

3  But  the  angel  of  the  Lord  said  to  '  Elijali  the 
Tishbite,  *  Arise,  go  up  to  meet  the  messengers  of  die 
king  of  Samaria,  and  say  unto  them,  Is  it  not  because 
there  is  not  a  God  in  Israel,  that  ye  go  to  inquire  of 
Baal-zebub,  the  god  of  Ekron .'' 

4  Now,  therefore,  thus  saith  the  Lord, Thou  shall 
not  come  down  from  that  bed  on  whicl  1 1 'lou  art  gone 
up,  but  shalt  surely  die.     And  Elijah  '  u^parted. 

5  And  when  the  messengers  turner  -  acxunto  him, 
he  said  unto  them,  Why  are  ye  now  turned  back  .'' 

6  And  they  said  unto  him,  There  t:ame  a  man  up 
to  meet  us,  and  said  unto  us,  Go,  turn  again  unto  the 
king  that  sent  you,  and  say  unto  him.  Thus  saith  the 
Lord,  Is  it  not  because  there  is  not  a  God  in  Israel, 
that  thou  sendest  to  inquire  of  Baal-zebub.  the  god  of 
*jkron  ?  therefore  thou  shalt  not  come  down  from 
that  bed  on  which  thou  art  gone  up,  but  shalt  surely 
die. 

7  And  he  said  unto  them,  WJbat  manner  of  man 


uY/.f  hew  liich  came  up  to  meet  you,  and  told  you  these 
w  ords  .'* 

{>  And  they  answered  him,  //r  mt/.?  a  hairy  '  man. 
and  girt  with  a  girdle  of  leather  about  his  loins.  And 
he  said.  It  is-  Elijah  the  Tishbite. 

9  Then  the  king  '  sent  unto  him  '  a  captain  ""  of 
fifty  with  his  fifty.  And  he  went  up  to  him  ;  (and, 
behold,  he  sat  on  the  ton  of  a  °  hill ;)  and  he  spake 
unto  him,  Thou  man  of  "God,  the  king  hath  said, 
Come  down. 

10  And  Elijah  answered  and  said  to  the  captain  of 
fifty.  If  I  be  a  man  of  Got!,  then  ^  let  fire  come  down 
from  '•  heaven,  and  consume  thee  and  thy  fifty.  And 
there  '  came  clown  fire  from  heaven,  and  consumed 
him  and  his  fifty. 

11  t  Again  also  he  sent  unto  him  another  captain 
of  fifty  with  his  fifty.  And  he '  answered  and  said  un- 
to him,  O  man  of  God,  thus  hath  the  king  said,  Come 
down '  quickly. 

12  And  Elijah  answered  and  said  uni  o  them.  If  I  be 
a  man  of  God,  let  fire  come  down  from  heaven,  and 
consume  thee  and  thy  fifty.  And  the  fire  of  CJod  came 
down  from  heaven,  and  consumed  him  and  his  fifty. 

13  And  he  sent "  again  a  captain  of  the  third  fifty 
with  his  fiify.  And  the  third  captain  of  fifty  \a  eiit  up, 
and  came  and  "  fell  on  his  knees  before  Elijah,  and 
besought  him,  and  said  unto  him,  O  man  of  God.  I 
pray  tliee,  let  my  t  life,  and  the  life  of  these  fifty  tliy 
servants,  be  [)recious  in  thv  sight.

the  kinfi  of  Mo;ib  'rebelled  against  the  king  of 
Israel. 

G  And  kins  Jehoram  wont  out  ot  Suinariathe  same 
time,  and  "  nundK-red  all  Israel. 

7  And  he  went  and  sent  to  Jehoshapliat  the  kinc;  of 
Judah,  sayins5,  The  kin«;  of  Moab  hath  relK'lled 
against  nu; :  '  wilt  thou  fto  with  nie  against  Moab  to 
battle  ?  And  he  said,  ""  1  will  go  U|i :  I  am  as  thou  art, 
my  [)eo|»le  as  thy  |)eople,  andmy  horses  as  thv  horses. 

0  And  he  said.  Which  way  shall  we  ^ouj)  r  And  he 
answered,  The  way  through  the "  wilderness  of  Edom. 

9  So  the  kins  of  Israel  went,  and  the  "  king;  of  Ju- 
dah, and  the  kingof  Edom  :  and  they  fetched  a  com- 
pass of  seven  days' journey  :  and  there  was  no  watiT 
for  the  ho.st,  an«l  for  the  cattle  f  that  followed  them. 

10  And  tlu  kins  of  Israel  said,  Alas!  that  "the 
Lord  hath  called  these  three  kings  together,  to  deliv- 
er them  into  iIk;  hand  of  Moab! 

11  I)ut.lehosiiapliat  said, /.sZ/ir/f  not  here  a**  proph- 
et of  the  Loud,  that  we  may  inquire  of  the  Lord 
liy  him  .''  And  one  of  the  kins  of  Israel's  servants  an- 
swered and  said,  Here  is  lOlisha  thesonof Shaphat, 
which  jioured  water  on  the  hands  of  Eliiah. 

12  And  Jehoshapliat  said, '  The  word  of  the  Lord 
is  with  him.  So  the  kins  of  Israel,  and  Jehoshapliat, 
and  the  kiii^  of  P^don), '  W(>nt  down  to  him. 

13  And  Llislia  said  unto  the  king  of  Israel,  t  What 
have  I  to  do  with  thee  .''  get  thee  to  the  proi)hets  of 
thy  father,  and  to  the  prophets  of  thy  mother.  And 
the  king  of  Israel  said  unto  him,  Nay  :  for  the  Lord 
hath  called  these  three  kings  together,  to  deliver  them 
into  the  hand  of  Moab. 

14  And  Elislia  said, '  As  the  Lord  of  hosts  liveth, 
7u'a''  before  whom  I  stand,  surely,  were  it  not  that  "  I  re- 
gard the  presence  of  Jehoshaphat  the  king  of  Judah, 
1 1  would  not  look  toward  thee,  nor  see  thee. 

15  But  now  briufj  me  *  a  minstrel.  And  it  came 
to  pass,  when  the  minstrel  played,  that  the  "  hand  of 
the  Lord  came  upon  him. 

16  And  he  said.  Thus  saiththe  Lord,  Make  this 
valley  t  full  of  ditches. 

1 7  For  thus  saitli  the  Lo  hd.  Ye  shall  not  .see "  wind, 
neither  shall  ye  see  rain  ;  yet  that  valley  shall  be  fdlecl 
with  water,  thatyemaydrink,botli  ye,  and  your  *  cat- 
tle, and  your  beasts. 

18  And  this  is  but  a  light  thing  in  the  sight  of  the 
Lord  :  he  will  deliver  the  Moabites  also  into  your 
hand. 

19  And  ye  shall  ''smite  every  fenced  city,  and  every 
choice  city,  and  shall "  fell  every  good  tree,  and  stop 
all  wells  of  water,  and  mar  every  good  piece  of  land 
with  stones. 

20  11  And  it  came  to  pass  iu  the  morning,  when  the 
^  K«n,i.  23,  J  meat-offering  was  offered,  that,  behold,  there  came 
1  King,  ID,  water  by  the  way  of  Edom ;  and  the  country  was 

*  filled  with  water. 

21  And  when  all  the  Moabites  heard  that  the  kings 
were  come  un  to  fight  against  them,  they  gathered  all 
that  vyere  able  to  put  on  armour,  and  upward,  and 
stood  in  the  border. 

22  And  they  rose  up  early  in  the  morning  and  the 
sun  shone  upon  the  water,  and  the  Moabites  saw  the 
water  on  the  other  side  as  red  as  blood  : 

2f?  .And  thev  said-   This  ?'.?  blnod :  t 
surely  slain,  and  they  have  smitten  one  another :  now 
therefore,  Moab,  to  the  spoil. 

24  And  when  they  came  to  the  camp  of  Israel,  the 
Israelites  rose  up  and  smote  the  Moabiier,  so  that  they

Moabites,  even  in  their  country. 

25  And  they  beat  down  the  cities,  and  on  every 
good  piece  of  land  cast  every  man  his  stone,  and  (ill- 
ed  it ;  und  they  stopped  all  the  wells  of  water,  and

26  And  when  the  king  of  Moab  saw  that  the  battlt? 
was  too  sore  for  him,  he  took  with  him  seven  hundred 
men  that « drew  swords,  to  break  through  even  unto 
the  king  of  Edonj :  but  they  could  not.  

27  'I  hen  he  took  ||  his  eldest  son,  that  should  have  V,;,',''i;/7r

said.  Thine  handmaid  hath  not  any  thing  in  the  house

18  11  And  when  the  child  was  grown,  it  fell  on  a 
day  that  he  went  out  to  his  lather  to  the  reapers. 

19  And  he  said  unto  his  father,  ^  My  head,  my  head ! 
And  ho  said  to  a  lad,  CV.rry  him  to  his  ''  motlier, 

20  And  when  he  liad  taken  him,  and  brought  him 
to  his  mother,  he  sat  on  her  knees  till  noon,  and  then 
'died. 

21  And  .she  went  up,  and  laid  him  on  the  bed  of 
the  man  of  God,  and  "  shut  the  door  upon  him,  and 
went  out. 

22  And  she  called  unto  her  husband,  and  said, 
Send  nic,  I  pray  thee,  one  of  the  young  men.  and  one 
of  the  asses,  that  I  may '  run  to  the  man  of  God,  and 
come  again. 

23  And  he  said,  Wherefore  wilt  thou  go  to  him  to- 
day ?  it  is  neither '"  new  moon  nor  sabbath.  And  she 
said,  t  ft  shall  be  well. 

2-1  Then  "  she  saddled  an  ass,  and  said  to  her  ser- 
\ant,  D'i ,e,  and  go  forward  ;  slack  not  thy  riding  for 
nie,  exr.c.tt  1  bid  thee. 

2.5  So  she  went,  and  came  unto  the  man  of  God  to 
mount "  Cannel.     And  it  came  to  pass,  when  the 
nian  of  God  saw  her  afar  olf,  that  he  said  to  Gehaz 
his  servant.  Behold,  yonder  is  that  Shunammite 

26  Run  now,  I  i)ray  thee,  to  meet  lier , 
unto  her.  Is  it  well  with  thee  ?  is  it  well  with 
band  ?  is  it  well  with  the  child  ?  And  she  answered,  It 
is  well. 

27  And  when  she  came  to  the  man  of  God  to  the 
liill,  she  caught  him  by  the  ^  fret :  but  Gehazi  came 
near  i  to  thrust  her  away.    And  the  man  of  God 
Let  her  alone ;  for  her  soul  fw  vexed  within  her :  and 

I,ia  the  Lord  hath  '  hid  it  from  me,  and  hath  not  told  me. 

28  Then  she  said, '  Did  I  desire  a  son  of  my  lord  ? 
did  I  not  say,  Do  not  deceive  me  ? 

29  Then  he  said  to  Gehazi, '  Gird  up  thy  loins,  and  :; 
take "  my  staffin  thine  hand,  and  go  thy  way :  if  thou  * 
meet  any  man,  "  salute  him  not ;  and  if  any  salute 
thee,  answer  him  not  again  :  and  lay  my  staff  upon 
the  face  of  the  child. 

30  And  the  mother  of  the  child  said,  As  the  Lord 
liveth,  and  as  thy  soul  liveth,  1  will  not  leave  thee. 
And  he  arose,  an(l  ^  followed  her. 

31  And  Gehazi  passed  on  before  them,  and  laid 
the  staff  upon  the  face  of  the  child  ;  but  there  was 
neither '  voice  nor  hearing :  wherefore  he  went  again 
to  meet  him,  and  told  him,  saying.  The  child  is  '  not 
awaked. 

32  And  when  Elisha  was  come  into  the  house,  be- 
hold, the  child  was  dead,  a7id\ai(\  upon  his  bed. 

33  lie  went  in  therefore,  and  ^  shut  the  door  upon

Defore    hcafd  that  the  king  of  Israel  had  rent  his  {'.lotlics,  that 
^rVr^BSH.'^  he  sent  to  the  kins,  saying,  °  Wherefore  hast  thou  rent 
^-'^^'^  thy  clothes  ?  let  him  come  now  to  me,  and  he  shall 
i'''r3,l7''  know  that  there  is  a  °  prophet  in  Israel. 
'"•  9  So  Naaman  came  with  his  horses  and  with  his 

oLuke4,27.  chariot,  and  ''  stood  at  the  door  of  the  house  of  Elisha. 

10  And  Elisha  sent  "a  messenger  unto  him,  say- 
ing, Go  and  '  wash  in  Jordan  seven  times,  and  thy 
flesh  shall  come  again  to  thee,  and  thou  shalt  be 
"clean. 

11  But  Naaman  was  wroth, '  and  went  away,  and 
said,  Behold,  1  thought,  He  will  surely  come  out  to 
me,  and  stand  and  call  on  the  name  ot  the  Lord  his 
God,  and "  strike  his  hand  over  the  j)lace,and  recover 
the  leper. 

12  Are  not  Abana  and  Pharpar,  rivers  of  Damas- 
cus, better  than  all  the  waters  of  Israel  ?  may  I  not 

fuorls;  i^  wash  in  them,  and  be  clean  ?  So  he  tinned,  and  went 
away  in  a  rage. 

13  And  his  servants  came  near,  and  sjjake  unto 
him,  and  said,  *  My  father,  if  the  prophet  had  bid 

2, 12.  thee  do  some  great  thing,  wouldest  thou  not  have  done 
it  ?  how  much  rather  then,  when  he  sailh  to  thee, 
Wash,  and  be  clean  ? 

1 4  ^  Then  went  he  down,  and  dipped  himself  seven 
times  in  Jordan,  according  to  the  saying  of  the  man 
of  God  :  and  his  flesh  came  again  like  unto  the  flesh 
of  a  little  child,  and  he "  wp-S  clean. 

15  And  he  returned  to  ihe  man  of  God,  he  and  all 
his  company,  and  came  and  stood  before  him :  and 
he  said,  Behold,  now,  I  know  thixtthere  is "  no  God  in 
all  the  earth  but  in  Israel :  now  therefore,  I  pray  thee, 
take  ''  a  blessing  of  thy  servant. 

16  But  he  said.  As  the  Lord  liveth,  before  whom 

I  stand,  I  w  ill "  receive  none.     And  he  urged  him  to 
take  it ;  but  he  refused. 

17  And  Naaman  said.  Shall  there  not  then,  I  pray  I 
thee,  be  given  to  thy  servant  two  mules'  burden  of  5 
earth  ?  for  thy  servant  will  henceforth  offer  neither 
burnt-offering  nor  sacrifice  unto  other  gods,  but  unto 
the  Lord. 

18  In  this  thing  the  Lord  pardon  thy  servant,  that 

II  when  mv  master  goeth  into  the  house  of  llimmon  to 
( r  /■«,.«  of  '^^'oi'shiji  there,  and  he  leaneth  on  my  hand,  and  I  bow 
HimZnJi  myself  in  the  house  of  Rimmon  ;  w  hen  I  bow  down 

myself  in  the  house  of  Rimmon,  the  Lord  pardon  thy 
servant  in  this  thing. 

1 9  And  he  said  unto  him.  Go  in  peace.  So  he  de- 
parted from  him  a  little  way. 

20  But  Gehazi,  the  servant  of  Elislia  the  man  of 
God,  said,  Behold,  my  master  hath  spared  Naaman 
this  Syrian,  in  not  receiving  at  his  hantis  that  which 
he  brought :  but,  as  the  Lord  liveth,  "^  I  will  run  after 
him,  and  take  somewhat  of  him. 

21  So  Gehazi  followed  after  Naaman.  And  when 
Naaman  saw  Am  running  after  him,  he  lighted  down 
from  the  chariot  to  meet  him,  and  said,  Is  all  well  ? 

22  And  he  said,  All  is  -ell.  My  master  hath  sent 
me,  saying,  Behold,  even  now* there  be  coriie  to  me 
tiom  mount  Ei)hraim  two  young  men  of  the  sons  of 
tile  projihets :  give  them,  f  pray  thee,  a  talent  of  sil- 
^e^,  and  two  changes  of  garments. 

23  And  Naaman  said,  Be  content,  take  two  talents. 
And  he  urged  him,  and  bound  two  talents  of  silver  in 
two  bags,  with  two  changes  of  garments,  and  laid 
them  upon  two  of  his  servants;  and  they  bare  them, 
before  him. 

24  And  when  he  came  to  (lie  to^^•cr.  he  took  them  f

25  But  he  went  in,  and  stood  before  his  master. 
And  Elisha  said  unto  him.  Whence;  cumcst  ihou,  Ge-

4  So '' he  went  \\  itii  them.  And  when  they  came  '^'"'''•-' " 
to  Jordan,  they  cut  down  wood.  .iver.s,i.. 

5  But  as  one  was  felling  a  beam,  the  f  axe  head 
fell  into  the  water  :  and  he  cried,  and  said,  Alas,  mas-

6  And  the  man  of  God  said.  Where  fell  it  ?  And  he  '^' 
shewed  hiin  the  place.     And  he  cut  doA\  n  '  a  stick,  'J;*i,!^:t

7  Therefore  saij,  he,  Take  it  up  to  thee.  And  he 
put  out  his  hand,  and  took  it. 

8  11  Then  the  king  of  Syria  warred  against  Israel, 
and « took  counsel  with  iiis  servants,  saying,  f  In  such

9  And  the  man  of  God  sent  unto  the  king  of  Israel, 
saying.  Beware  that  thou  pass  not  such  a  place  ;  for 
thither  the  Syrians  are  come  down. 

10  And  the  king  of  Israel ''  sent  to  the  place  which 
the  man  of  God  told  him  and  warned  liim  of,  and 
saved  himself  there,  not  once  nor  twice. 

1 1  Therefore  the  heart  of  the  king  of  Syria  was 
II  sore  troubled  for  this  thing ;  aiid  he  called  his  ser- 
vants, and  said  unto  them,  Will  ye  not  shew  me  which 
of  us  is  for  the  king  of  Israel : 

12  And  one  of  his  servants  said,  None,  my  lord, 
O  king :  but  Elisha,  the  prophet  that  is  in  Israel,  tell- 

eth  the  king  of  Israel  the  words  that  thou  speakest  in  1  kcci.  m,

Lord,  ^  at  the  hand  of  Jezebel. 

8  For  the  whole  house  of  Ahab  shall  perish ;  and 
I  will  cut  olFfrom  Ahab  him  that "  pisseth  against  the 
wall,  and  him  that  is  '  shut  up  and  left  in  Israel : 

9  And  I  will  make  the  house  of  Ahab  like  the

he  opened  the  door  and  lied. 

1 1  Then  Jehu  came  forth  to  the  servants  of  his  lord : 
and  one  said  unto  him.  Is  all  well  ?  wherefore  came 
this  °  mad  fel/ow  to  thee  ?  And  he  said  unto  them, 
Ye  know  the  man,  and  his  communication. 

12  And  they  said.  It  is  false  ;  tell  us  now.  And 
he  said,  Thus  and  thus  spake  he  to  me,  saying.  Thus 
saith  the  Lord,  I  have  anointed  thee  king  over  Israel. 

13  Then  they  hasted,  and  took  every  man  his  gar-

and  blew  with  trumpets,  saying,  Jehu  is  king.

2  Saul's  ovi Mtlii(i\v....8  The  I'hilistini's  triumph  over  Suul. 

NOW  the  "  Philistines  fought  against  Israel ;  and 
till!  men  of  Israel  fled  from  before  the  Philistines, 
and  fell  down  slaiu  in  mount  (iilboa. 

2  And  the  Philistines  followed  hard  after  Saul,  and 
after  his  sons;  and  the  Pliilisthies  slew  ''Jonathan, 
and  Abinadab,  and  Malchi-shua,  the  sons  of  Said. 

3  And  the  battle  went  sore  against  Said,  and  the 
*=  archers  hit  him,  and  he  was  wounded  ol'tlie  archers. 

4  Then  said  Saul  to  his  armour-bearer.  Draw  thy 
sword,  and  thrust  nie  through  therewith,  lest  these 
uneircmncised  come  and ''abuse  inc.  iJiit  his  armour- 
bearer  would  not ;  for  he  was  sore  afraid.  So  Saul 
took  a  s\\  ord,  and  fell  ifpon  it. 

5  And  when  his  armour-bearer  saw  that  Saul  was 
dead,  he  fell  likewise  on  the  sword,  and  died. 

G  So  Saul  died,  and  his  "  three  sons,  and  '  all  his 
house  died  together. 

7  And  when  all  t!io  men  of  Israel  that  were  in  th(! 
^  valley  saw  that  they  fled,  and  that  Saul  and  his  sons 
were  dead,  then  they  forsook  their  cities  and  fled :  and 
the  Philistines  came  and  dwelt  in  them. 

8  II  And  it  came  to  pass  on  the  morrow,  when  the 
Philistines  came  to  strip  tin;  slain,  that  they  found 
Saul  and  his  sons  fallen  in  mount  (iilboa. 

9  And  when  they  had  ''  stripped  him,  they  took  his 
head,  and  his  armour,  and  sent  into  the  land  of  the 
Philistines  round  about,  to  carry  tidings  unto  their 
'  idols,  and  to  the  people. 

10  And  tjiey  put  his  armour  iji  the  house  of  their 
*  gods,  and  fastened  his  head  in  the  temple  of  Uagon. 

11  liAnd  when  all  '  Jabcsh-gilead  heard  all  that 
the  Philistines  had  done  to  Saul, 

12  They  arose,  all  the  valiant  men,  and  took  away 
the  body  of  Saul,  and  the  bodies  of  his  sons,  anil 
brought  them  to  Jabesh,  and  buried  their  bones  under 
the  oak  in  Jabesh.  and  fasted  seven  days. 

13  II  .So  Saul  died  for  his  transgression  which  he 
committed  against  the  Lord,  even  against  ""the  word 
of  the  Lord,  which  he  kept  not,  and  also  for  "ask- 
ing counsel  of  one  that  had  a  familiar  sinrit,  to  inquire; 
ofit; 

14  And  "  inquired  not  of  the  IjOrd  :  therefore  he 
'  slew  him,  and  ^  turned  the  kingdom  unto  David  tlie 
son  of  Jesse. 

CHAPTER  XI. 

David  by  a  general  consent  is  niuile  king  at  Hebron. 

THEN  •  all  Israel "  gathered  tlu^mselves  to  David 
unto  Hebron,  saying,  Rehold,  we  arc  thy  bone 
and  thy  flesh. 

2  And,  moreover,  in  time  past,  even  when  Saul 
was  king,  tliouwcwi  he  that  leddestoutand  broughtcst 
in  Israel:  and  the  Lord  thy  God  said  unto  thee,  Thou

CHAPTER  I. 

Solomoir^  choke  ol  wLsdoni  is  blessed  by  God. 

AND  F  )lomon  the  son  of  David  "was  slreni;th- 
ened  in  his  kingdom,  and  the  Lord  hi.s  Cod  icas 
"  with  him, "  and  magnified  him  e.^ceedinglv. 

2  Then  Solomon  ^  spake  unto  all  Israel,  to  the 
captains  of  thousands  and  of  hundreds,  and  to  the 
judges,  and  to  every  governor  in  all  Israel,  the  chiet 
of  tiie  fathers.  .  . 

3  So  Solomon,  and  all  the  cougregatioii  witii  liim,  \ 
went  to  the  "  hiich  place  that  teas  at  Gibcon;  forS 
there  was  the  'tabernacle  of  the  congregation  ot  God,  j 
which  IMoses,  the  servant  of  the  Loud,  had  made  in  | 
the  wilderness.  ,-...,         ,         r 

4  But  the  ark  of  God  had  David  brought  up  from  j 
"  Kirjath-icarim  to  the  place  ivhich  David  hail  prepared  : 
for  it :  for  he  had  pitched  a  tent  for  it  at  .J  enisalem.      i 

5  Moreover,  the  ''  brazen  altar  that  Ik'zaleel,  die  i 
son  of  Url,  the  son  of  ilur,  had  made,  he  put  betore  \ 
the  tabernacle  of  the  T.ord  ;  and  Solomon  and  the  | 

!.  conKieg-ition  '  sought  unto  it. 

6  And  Solomon  went  up  thither  to  the  brazen 
altar  "  before  die  Lord,  whii.li  was  at  the  tabernacle! 
of  the  congregation,  and  offered  a  thousand  bmnt- 
offeviiigs  upon  it. 

7  In  that  '  night  did  God  appear  unto  Solomon, 
and  said  unto  him.  Ask  what  1  ^l'all  give  thee. 

B  And  Solomon  said  unto  tiod,  Thou  hast  shewed 
great  mercy  unto  David  my  father,  and  hast  made 
me  to  reign  "  in  his  stead.  . 

9  Now,  O  Lord  God,  lot  thy  promise  unto  David 
nn  father  be  established :  for  thou  hast  made  me  king 
over  a  people  like  the  dust  of  the  earth  in  "  multitude. 

10  °  Give  nv^  now  wisdom  and  knowledge,  that  I 
may  ^go  out  and  come  in  bef.-rc  this  people:  for  who 
can  "'  judge  this  tliv  people  that  is  so  great : 

n'And  God  said  to  Solomon,  Because  this  was 


'  in  thy  I'.cart,  and  thou  hast  not  asked  riches,  wealth, 
or  honour,  nor  the  life  of  thine  enemies,  neither  yet 
hast  asked  long  life ;  but  hast  asked  wisdom  and 
knowledge  for  thyself,  that  thou  mayest  .)iidge  my 
people,  over  whom  I  have  made  thee  king  : 

12  =  Wisdom  and  kno\^  ledge  is  granted  unto  thee  ; 
and  1  will  give  thee  riches,  and  wealth,  and  honour. 


such  as  '  none  of 


the  kings  have  had  that  have  been 


before  thee,  neither  shall  there  any  alter  iliee  have 

the  like.  ,       ,     .  , 

13  II  Then  Solomon  came  J/wn  his./oitniey  to  the 
high  place  that  ivas  at  Gibeon  to  Jerusalem,  Ironi 
before  the  tabernacle  of  the  congregation,  and  "reigned 

over  Israel.  ,       ,     ,     .  i  • 

li.  And  Solomon  *  gatherctl  chariots  and  horse- 
,  men,  and  he  had  athousand  and  fotn-  huiulred  chariots, 
land  twelve  thousand  horsemen,  which  lu-  placed  in 
idie  chariot-cities,  and  ^\ith  the  kini:  at.  orusalem. 
i  15  And  the  ^  king  made  silver  and  gold  at .  enisa- 
:  lem  (ts2)lenteoiisi\s  stones,  and  cedar-tnx'smade  li'.vas 
i  die  svcamore-trccs  that  are  in  the  vale  lor  abupdance. 
!  It)  And  Solomon  had 'horscsbroiight  out  ot  Egypt, 
sand  linen  yarn;  the  king's  merchants  received  the 
\  linen  yarn  at  a  })rice.  ,    ..     ,  r 

I      17  And  they  fetched  up,  and  brought  lortli  out  o 
\  Eiivpt,  a  chariot  for  six  hundred  shei,rls  ol  silver,  and 
I  a  horse  for  a  hundred  and  fifty  :  and  so  brought  they 
out  horses  for  all  the  kings  of  the  1  Iittites,  and  ior  tlie 
'•  kings  of  Syria,  f  by  their  means. 
\  CHAPTER  II. 

\  Solomon's  labourers  lor  tlic  building  ol  the  leniple. 

>  4  ND  Solomon  determined  to  build  a  house  tor  tjie 
\  xV"  nameof  the  Lord,  and  a  house  "for  his  kingdom. 
\  2  And  Solomon  told  out  threescore  and  "  ten  thou- 
5  sand  men  to  beat  burdens,  and  fourscoic  thou.sand 
'  to  !icw  in  the  "^  nsnuntnin,  and  "^  three  thousand  and

Solomon''s  message  io  Ilurain 

Bffore  _  3  And  Solomon  sent  to '  ITnram  the  kina;  of  Tyro,  j 
^  'w'.^^  saying,  As  thou  didst  deal  with  David  my  tatiier,  and  j 
— '"*-'  didst  send  him  cedars  to  build  him  a  house  to  dwell  j 
11  KiiiE«5,  jjjgjgin,  eten  so  deal  with  me. 

eiK.nfr..5,      ^  Behold,  I  build  a  house  to  the  «  name  of  the 
i.k  8, 18. '  Lord  xny  God,  to  dedicate  it  to  him,  and  to  burn  be- 
hEi.25,30.  fore  him  sweet  incense,  and  for  the "  continual  shew- 
''"■*''°'  bread,  and  for  the  burnt-ofterings  morning  and  eve- 
ning, on  the  sabbatlis,  and  on  the  new  moons,  and  on 
the  solemn  feasts  of  the  Loed  our  God.     This  is  an 
ordinance  for  ever  to  Israel. 

6  And  the  house  which  I  build  is  great :  for  great 
is  our  God  '  above  all  gods. 

6  But ''  who  is  able  to  Suild  him  a  house,  seeing  the 
i  isa.  ce,  1.  heaven  and  '  heaven  of  heavens  cannot  contain  him  ? 
who  am  I  then,  that  I  should  build  him  a  house,  save 
only  to  burn  sacrifice  Leforc  him  ?  | 

miiia,2c,        "7  ggj^ji  ,^g  j^Q^y^  therefore,  "  a  man  cunning  to| 

work  in  gold,  and  in  silver,  and  in  brass,  and  in  iron,  | 
lit  Kiiis58,  and  in  purple,  and  crimson,  and  blue,  and  that  can  \ 
skill "  to  grave  with  thecunni'ig  men  that  arc  with  me  s 
in  Judah  find  in  .Tcrusalem,  whom  David  my  father  i 
did  ""  provide.  \ 

8  Send  me  also  ^  cedar-trees,  fir-trees,  and  '^  al- 1 
gum-trees,  out  of  Lebanon ;  (for  I  know  that  thy  sur-  \ 
vants  can  skill  to  cut  timber  in  Lebanon;)  and,  be-} 
hold, '  my  servants  shall  be  with  thy  servants,  j 

9  Even  to  prepare  me  timber  in  abundance  :  for  j 
the  house  which  1  am  about  to  build  shall  be  f  won-  5 
derful  groat.  J 

10  And,  behold,  I  will  give  to  thy  servants,  tlic  J 
1  Ki.'VT'  hewers  that  cut  timl)er,  twenty  tl'iusand  f  measurers  J 
"'■'"''"  of  beaten  wheat,  and  twenty  thousand  measures  oi'j 

barley,  and  twenty  thousand  ^  baths  of  w  inc,  and  I  wen-  5 
ty  thousand  baths  of  oil.  | 

1 1  Then  Huram  the  king  of  Tvrc  f  answered  in  \ 
writing,  which  he  sent  to  Solomon,  Because  the  Loiin  5 
hath  'loved  his  people,  he  hath  made  thee  king  over? 
them.  I 

12Huram  said  moreover,  Blessed  be  the  Loru  Ciod  I 
of  Israel,  that  "  made  heaven  and  earth,  who  Iiatli  i 
given  to  David  the  king  a  wise  son,  f  endued  witli  I 
l)rudence  and  understandincthat  might  build  a  house  \ 
for  the  Loud,  ansi  a  house  lor  his  kingdom.  ? 

13  And  now  I  have  sent  a  cunning  man,  endu.ed  \ 
with  understanding,  of  "  Ilurani  my  father's.  J 

14  The  *■  son  of  a  woman  dftlic  daughters  of  Dan,  i 
and  his  lather  was  a  man  of  Tyre,  skilful  to  work  in ' 
gold,  and  in  silver,  in  brass,  in  iron,  in  stone,  and  in 
timber,  in  purple,  in  blue,  and  in  fine  linen,  and  in 
crinison  ;  also  to  grave  any  manner  of  graving,  atid 
to  find  out  every  device  which  shall  be  put  to  him,  ^ 
whh  thy  cunning  men,  and  with  thecumiing  men  of? 
iny  lord  David  thy  father.  s 

15  Now  therefore  the  nhcat,  and  the  barley,  theS 
oil,  and  the  wine,  which  my  lord  hath  spoken  of,  let! 
him  send  unto  his  servants :  < 

16  And  we  will  cut  wood  out  of  Lebanon,  f  as< 
niuch  as  thou  shalt  need  ;  and  we  will  bring  it  to  thee  5 
in  floats  [)y  sea  to  ^  Jopi)a,  and  thou  shalt  carry  it  ui»  l 
to  Jerusi^lem.  | 

ITHAiid  Solomon  numbered  all  the  *  strangers;

wherewith  David  his  father  had  numbered  them ;  an*'  \

none  such  seen  before  in  the  land  of  Judah.

all  her  desire,  whatsoever  she  asked,  "  besides  that 
which  she  had  brought  unto  the  king :  so  she  turned, 
and  went  away  to  her  ovvn  land,  she  and  her  servants. 

13  Now  the  weight  of  gold  that  came  to  Solomon 
in  one  year  was  six  hundred  and  threescore  and  six

J, I. r.  18, 23.  sm  be  '  blotted  out  from  before  thee  ;  for  they  have  | 

provoked  thee  to  anger  before  the  builders. 

6  ■"  So  built  we  the  wall :  and  all  the  wall  was : 
"joined  together  unto  the  half  thereof:  for  the  people 
had  °  a  mind  to  w  ork. 

7  But  it  came  to  pass,  that  when  Sanballat,  and 
Tobiah,  and  the  p  Arabians,  and  the  •>  Ammonites, 
and  the  '  Aslidoditos,  heard  that  the  walls  of  Jerusa- 
lem were  made  up,  and  that  the  breaches  began  to  be 
stopped,  then  they  were '  very  wroth, 

8  And  conspired  '  all  of  them  together  to  come  and 
to  light  against  Jerusalem,  and  toliinder  it. 

9  Nevertheless  we  made  our "  prayer  unto  our  God, 
and  *  set  a  watch  against  them  day  and  night,  because 

ui's.5o,i5.  of  them. 

10  And  Judah  said.  The  ^  strength  of  the  bearers 

of  burdens  is  decayed,  and  there  is  much  rubbish,  so

/  Num.  13,  neither  see,  till  we  come  in  the  midst  among  them, 
"'  and  slay  them,  and  cause  the  work  to  cease. 

12  And  it  came  to  pass,  that  when  the  Jews  which 
''dwelt  by  them  came,  they  said  unto  us  ten  times. 
From  all  jilaces  whence  ye  shall  return  unto  us  they 
will  be  npon  you.. 

1 3  Therefore  t  set  I  in  the  lower  places  behind  the 
wall,  and  on  the  higher  places,  I  even  set  the  people 
after  their  families,  with  their  swords,  their  spears, 
and  their  bows. 

14  And  I  looked,  and  rose  up,  and  said  unto  the 
nobles,  and  to  the  rulers,  and  to  the  rest  of  the  people, 

t.N-im. II,  ''Be  not  ye  afraid  of  them  :  "^remember  the  Lord

the  half  of  my  ^  servants  wrought  in  the  work,  and 
tlie  other  half  of  them  "  held  bodi  the  spears,  the 
shields,  and  the  bows,  and  the  habergeons ;  and  the 
r\x\ers  were  behind  all  the  house  of  Judah. 

17  They  which  builded  on  the  wall,  and  they  that  u 
bare  burdens,  with  those  that  laded,  eve,  n  one  with  ' 
one  of  his  hands  wrouglit  in  the  work,  and  with  the

18  For  the  builders,  every  one  had  his  sword  girded 
by  his  side,  and  so  builded.  And  he  that  sounded 
the  trumpet  was  by  me.  .        ,        , 

19  And  I  said  unto  the  nobles,  and  to  the  rulers, 
and  to  the  rest  of  the  people.  The  work  is  great  and

CHAPTER  V. 

The  Jews  complain  of  their  debt  and  bondage. 

AND  there  was »  a  great  cry  of  the  people,  and  of  l^\^;l

3  Some  also  there  were  that  said.  We  have  mort-  ■=  ""^  '■ 
gagedour  lands, vineyards, and  houses, that  we  might  ^^v^^^^^^ 
buy  corn,  because  of  the  dearth. 

4  There  were  also  that  said.  We  have  borrowed 
money  for  the  king's  *  tribute,  and  that  upon  our  lands  ^  ,.;.„„  4,,, 
and  vineyards.  tuuy..-: 

5  Yet  now  'our  flesh  is  as  the  flesh  of  our  brethren,  ^  ^^^  .,.

the  nobles,  and  the  rulers,  and  said  unto  them,  "  You  "in-

CHAPTER  XIII. 

Divers  ahusoi  refonnod  by  Neliemiah. 
^N  Mhat  day  they  read  in  the  book  of  Moses  in 
w   the  audience  ot  the  i»eoplc ;  and  therein  was 
found  "  written,  that  the  "=  Ammonite  and  the  Moabite 
should  not  come  into  the  congregation  of  God  for  ever : 

2  Because  they  '^  met  not  the  children  of  Israel 
with  bread  and  with  water,  but  "hired  Balaam  against 
them,  that  he  should  curse  them ;  howbeit  our  God 

turned  the  cuisfe  into  a  blessing. 

3  Now  it  came  to  pass,  when  they  had  ^  heard  the 
law;,  that  they  separated  from  Israel  all  the  "  mixed 
inultitiKie. 

4  H  And  '  before  this,  Kliashib  the  priest,  having 
the  "pversightof  th.eol):?!v,berof  the  houseof  our  God, 


them  together,  and  .set  them  in  their  |)li  ... 

12  Then  brought  all  .Judah  the  tithe  of  the  corn, 
and  the  new  wine,  and  ilie  oil,  unto  the  treasuries. 

13  And  I  made '  treasurers  over  the  treasuries,  nthr 
Shelemiah  the  priest,  and  Zadok  the  scribe;  and  of  " 
the  Levites.  Pedaiah  ;  and  next  to  them  was  llanan 
the  son  ot  Zaceur.  the  .son  of  Mattaniah :  for  they 
Avere  coimled  "  faithful ;  and  their  office  was  to  distri- 
bute unto  their  brethren. 

14  ^Remember  me,  O  my  God,  concerning  this, 
and  wipe  not  out  my  t  good  deeds  that  I  have  done 
tor  the  hou.se  of  my  God,  and  for  the  offices  thereof.  „„.„ 

13  il  In  those  days  .saw  I  in  .Judah  some  treading  l^'^'-'^''<

17  Then  I  contended  with  the  nobles  of  Judah, 
andsnid  unto  them.  What  evil  thing  is  this  that 'ye  uTim.s. 
J  do,  ai.d  i)rofane  the  sabbath-day  f  "■ 

I      IH  Did  not "  your  fathers  thus,  and  dii,  .,wi  . 
I  God  bring  all  this  evil  upon  us,  and  upon  this  city  ? 
I  yet  ye  f  bring  more  wrath  upon  Israel  by  i)iofaning  nu-h.M 
*  the  sabbath. 

19  And  it  came  to  pass,  that  when  the  gates  of  Je- 
rusalem began  to  be  '  dark  before  the  sabbath,  I  com- 
manded that  the  gates  should  be  shut,  and  chargei 
that  they  should  not  be  oi)ened  till  after  the  .sabbath  : 
and  some  of  mv  servants  set  I  at  the  gates,  that  there 
should  no  burden  be  brought  in  on  the  sabbath-dav. 

20  So  the  merchants,  and  sellers  of  all  kind  of 
ware,  lodged  without  Jerusalem  once  or  twice. 

21  Tben  I  testified  against  them,  and  said  unto 
them,  VVhv  lodge  ye  about  the  wall  ?  if  ye  do  so  again, 
I  will  lay  hands  on  you.     From  that  time  forth  came  ^1='^^'' 
they  no  more  on  the  sabbath. 

22  And  "•  I  commanded  the  Levites,  that  thev  ^  °  *

and '  keep  the  gates,  to  banctify    the  sabbath-dav.  J,,.^,, ,

royal  house,  over  against  the  gate  of  the  house. 

2  And  it  was  so^  when  the  king  saw  Esther  the 
fiuccii  standing  in  the  court,  that  she  '^  obtained  favour  <i  iv.  21, : 
in  his  sight :  and  the  king  "  held  out  to  Esther  the  erh.i,  h

near,  and  touched  the  '  top  of  the  sceptre.  f  •-■"'  '^> '  •

grieved  ;  and  she  sent  raiivicnt  to  clothe  Mordecai, 
and  to  take  away  the  sackcloth  from  him  :  but  he 
''  received  it  not. 

5  Then  called  Esther  for  Hatach,orte  of  the  king': 
chamberlains,  whom  he  had  appointed  toattend  upon 
her,  and  gave  him  a  commandment  to  Mordecai, '  to 
know  what  it  was,  and  w  hy  it  icas. 

G  So  Hatach  "  went  forth  to  Mordecai  unto  the

had  promised  to  pay  to  the  king's  treasuries  for  the

IF  The  BOOK  of  JOB. 


CHAPTER  I. 

The  liolinoss,  and  religious  care  of  .Tob  for  his  chikiren. 

THEPiE  was  a  man  in  the  land  of "  Uz,  whose 
name  was  ''Job  ;  and  that  man  was "  f)erfect  and 
''upright,  and  one  that  "feared  God,  and  "^ eschewed 
evil. 

2  And  there  were  born  unto  him  ^  seveirsons  and 
three  (laughters. 

3  His  ''  substance  also  was  seven  thousand  sheep, 
and  three  thousand  camels,  and  five  hundred  yoke  of 
oxen,  and  live  hundred  she-asses,  and  a  very  great 
household  ;  so  that  this  man  v\  as  the  greatest  of  all 
tlieir-cn  of  the  east. 

4  kv\A  his  sons  went  and  '  feasted  in  their  houses 
every  one  ''  his  day  ;  i»  sent  and  called  for  their 
three  sisters,  '  to  eac  an      i  drink  with  them. 

o  And  it  was  so,  ^^  h  die  days  of  their  feasting 
were  gone  about, :!);»:  ?  sent  and  "'sanctified  them, 
and  "  rose  up  early  in  die  morning,  and  offered  burnt- 
orterings  according  °  to  the  number  of  them  all :  for 
Job  said,  ''  It  may  be  tJiat  n'iV  sons  have  *•  sinned, 
and  cursed  God  in  their  *■  hearts.     Thus  did  Job 

*  continually. 

6  If  Now  there  was  a  day  when  '  the  sons  of  God 
came  to  "  iircsent  themselves  before  the  Loud,  and 

*  Satan  came  also  among  them. 

7  And  the  Lord  said  inito  Satan,  *  Whence  eomcst 
thou  ?  Then  Satan  answered  the  Lord,  and  said, 
from  "  going  to  and  fro  in  tlie  earth,  and  from  walk- 
ing up  and  down  in  it. 

8  And  the  Lord  said  unto  Satan,  Hast  thou  con- 
sidered my  servant  .Job,  that  there  is-nowc  like  him 
in  the  earth,  a  perfect  and  :in  unvight  man-,  one  that 
fearetli  God,  and  eseheweth  evil .? 

9  Then  Satan  answered  the  Lord,  and  said,  Doth 
Job  fear  God  for  nought,^ 


10  Hast  not  thou  made  a  "  liedge  about  him,  and 
about  his  ''house,  and  about  i.il  that  he  hath  on  every 
side  ?  Thou  hast  blessed  the  "^  work  of  his  hands,  and 
his  substance  \r  mcreased  in  the  land  : 

1 1  But  i)ut  forth  thy  hand  now,  and  touch  all  that 
he  hath,  and  he  will  '^  curse  thee  to  tliy  face. 

12  And  the  Lord  said  unto  Satan,  Behold,  all  that 
he  hath  js  *in  thy  po^\  er  ;  ^  only  upon  liimself  put  not 
forth  thy  hand.  So  Satan  went  Ibrth  from  the  pres- 
ence of  the  Lord. 

13  IT  And  there  was  a  day  ^\  hen  his  sons  and  his 
daughters  were  ^  eating  and  drinking  wine  in  their 
eldest  brother's  house : 

14  And  there  came  ''  a  messenger  unto  Job,  and 
said.  The  oxen  were  plowing,  and  the  asses  feeding 
beside  them  ; 

15  And  the  Sabeans  fell  aponthem,  and  took  them 
away;  yea,  they  have  slain  ihc  servants  with  tiio 
edge  of  the  sword  ;  and  '  I  only  am  escaiicd  alone  to 
tell  th(?c. 

16  ''While  he  was  vet  speakins:,  there  came  also 
another,  and  said,  '  The  fire  of  (Jod  is  fallen  from 
heaven,  and  hath  burnt  up  the  sheep,  and  the  .ser- 
vants, and  consumed  them  ;  and  I  only  am  escaped 
alone  to  tell  thee. 

17  While  he  7vas  yet  speaking,  there  came  also 
another,  and  said,  The  Chaldeans  made  out  three 
bands,  and  fell  upon  the  camels,  and  have  carried 
them  away,  yea,  and  slain  the  servants  with  the  edge 
of  the  sword ;  and  I  only  am  esciipcd  alone  to  tell  th(;c. 

18  ^Vhile  he  wcisyct  speakhig,  there  came  also 
another,  and  said,  rny  sons  and  thy  daughters  icere 
eating  S'ld  drinking  wine  in  their  oldest  brother's 
house : 

19  And,  behold,  there  came  "  a  great  wind  from 
the  wilderness,  and  f  smote  the  four  corners  of  live

said,  From  going  to  and  fro  in  the  earth,  and  Irom

2i  '  Teach  me,  and  1  will  "  liold  my  tongue  ;  and 
cause  me  to  understand  wherein  1  have  erred. 

25  How  forcible  are  "  right  words !  bnt  what  doth 
your  arftuing  reprove  ? 

26  bo  yc  imagine  to  reprove  words,  and  the 
speeclies  of  one  that  is  desperate,  which  are  as "  wind  't 

27  Yea,  ye  ''  overwhelm  the  fatherless,  and  ye  dig 
a  pit  for  your  friend. 

28  Now,  therefore,  be  content :  look  uponmc :  for 
''"•  ''''• "  it  is  "  evident  unto  you  if  I  lie. 

29  '  Return,  I  pray  you,  let  it  not  be  iniquity ;  yea, 
return  again,  my  righteousness  is  in  it. 

(30  Is  there  iniquity  in  «my  tongue?  cannot  my 
taste  ''  discern  perverse  things  ? 

CHAPTER  VH.

7 1. 38, 5.  X   are  not  his  days  also  like  the  days  of  *"  a  hireling  ? 

2  As  a  servant  earnestly  desireth  the  shadow,  and 
as  a  iiireling  looketh  for "  the  reward  of  liis  \vork  ; 

3  So  am  1  made  to  possess  **  months  of  vanity,  and 
wearisome  nights  are  appointed  to  me. 

4  When  I  lie  down,  1  say.  When  shall  I  arise,  and 
the ''night  be  gone  ?  and  1  am  full  oftossings  to 
and  fro  unto  the  dawning  of  the  day. 

5  My  flesh  is  clothed  with  ^  worms  and. clods  of 
dust ;  my  skin  is  broken,  and  become  ''  loathsome. 

6  My  days  are  '  swifter  than  a  weaver's  shuttle, ' 
and  are  spent  without ''  hoi>e. 

7  O  remember  that  my  life  is  '  wind  :  mine  eye 
shall  no  more  see  good. 

8  The  eye  of  him  that  hath  seen  mc  shall  see  mc 
"  no  more : "  thine  eyes  are  upon  me,  and  I  am  not. 

9  As  the  cloud  is  consumed  aijd  vanisheth  away  ; 
so  he  that  goeth  down  co  the  grave  shall  "  come  up  no 
more. 

10  He  shall  returti  no  more  to  ^  his  house,  neither 
shall  his  place  know  him  any  ?« ore. 

1 1  Therefore  1  will  not  "^  refrain  my  mouth ;  I  will 
speak  in  the  anguish  of  my  spirit ;  I  will  complain  in 
the  bitterness  of  my  soul. 

12  'Am  I  a  sea,  or  a  whale,  that  thou  '  scttest  a 
\\atch  over  me  ? 

13  When  I  say,  'My  bed  shall  comfort  mc,  my 
couch  shall  ease  my  complaint ; 

14  Then  thou  "  scarest  me  with  dreams,  and  ter- 
rifiest  me  through  visions  : 

15  So  that  Tny  soul  chooseth  strangling,  and  death 
rather  than  my  t  life- 

16  I  loathe  // :  I  woidd  not  live  always :  *  let  me 
alone ;  for  my  days  are  vanity. 

1 7  What  is  y  man  that  thou  shouldest  magnify  him  ? 
and  that  thou  shouldest  set  thy  heart  upon  him  ? 

1 8  And  that  tlwu  shouldest  visit  him '  every  morn- 
ing, and  try  him  every  moment  ? 

19  "  How  long  wilt  thou  not  depart  from  me,  nor 
let  me  alone  till  I  swallow  down  my  spittle  ? 

20  I  have  "  sinned ;  what  shall  1  do  unto  thee,  O 
thou  Preserver  of  men  ?  why  hast  thou  set  me  as  a 
niaj;k  against  thee,  so  that  I  am  a  bunlen  to  myself? 

21  And  why  dost  thou  not  j  pardon  my  transgrcs- 1 
sion,  and  take  away  mhie  iniquity  ?  fornou'  shall  1 1

7  Though  thy  ''  beginning  was  small,  yet  thy  latter

8  For '  inquire,  I  pray  thee,  of  the  former  age,  and  i/J™';^

the  '  eagle  that  hasteth  to  tlu;  prev. 

27  If  I  say,  I  will  forget  my  "^ complaint, 
leave  off  my  heaviness,  and  comfort  myself; 

28  I  am  "  afraid  of  all  my  sorrows,  I  know  that 
thou  wilt  not  hold  me  innocent. 

29  Jf\  be  wicked,  why  then  labour  I '  in  vain  ? 

30  If  I  « wash  myself  with  snow  water,  and  make 
my  hands  never  so  clean  ; 

31  Yet  shall  thou  plunge  me  in  the  ''  ditch,  and 
mine  own  clothes  shall  abhor  me. 

32  For  he  is  not  a  '  man,  as  I  am,  that  I  should 
answer  Inm,  and  wc  should  come  together  in  judg- 
ment. 

23  Neither  is  there  any  ^-  days-man  betwi.xt  us, 
that  might  lay  his  hand  upon  us  both. 

S'i  Let  him  take  his  rod  away  from  nae,  and  let 
not  his  '  fear  terrify  me ;

4  I  am  as  one  mocked  of  his  neighbour,  who''call-

CHAPTER  XXVn. 

The  blessings  whicli  the  wicked  have  are  turned  into  curses 

MOREOVER,  'Job  continued  his  parable,  and 
said, 

2  As  God  liveth,  icho  hath ''  taken  away  my  judg- 
ment ;  and  the  Almighty,  idio  hath  vexed  my  soul ; 

3  All  the  while  my  breath  is  in  me,  and  the  "  si)irit 
of  fiod  is  in  my  nostrils, 

4  My  lips  shall  not  speak  •■  wickedness,  nor  my 
tongue  utter  deceit. 

5  God  forbid  that  I  should  *. justify  you :  till  I  die  I 
will  '  not  remove  mine  integrity  from  me. 

6  My  righteousness  ^  I  hold  fast,  and  will  not  let  it 
go :  ■"  my  heart  shall  not  reproach  me  so  long  as  1 

7  '  Let  mine  enemy  be  as  the  wicked,  and  he  that 
riseth  up  against  me  as  the  unrighteous. 

8  For  what  is  the  hone  of  the  hypocrite,  though  he 
hath  gained,  when  God  "  taketh  away  his  soul .'' 

9  Will  God  hear  his  cry  when  'trouble  cometh 
upon  him  .'* 

10  Will  he  delight  himself  in  the  Almighty  ?  will 
he  "  always  call  upon  God  ? 

1 1  "  I  will  teach  you  by  the  hand  of  God :  that 
which  is  with  the  Almighty  will  I  not  conceal. 

12  Behold,  all  ve  yourselves  have  seen  it ;  why 
then  arc  ye  thus  altogether  °  vain  ? 

13  This  is  the  portion  of  a  wicked  man  with  God, 
and  the  heritage  of  ^  oppressors,  xvhich  they  shall 
receive  of  the  Almighty. 

14  If  his  children  be  multiplied,  itis  for  the"*  sword ; 
and  his  offspring  shall  not  be  satisfied  with  bread. 

15  Those  that  remain  of  him  shall  be  ■■  buried  in 
death  :  and  his  widows  shall '  not  weep. 

16  Though  ho  *  heai)  up  silver  as  the  dust,  and  pre- 
pare raiment  as  the  clay ; 

1 7  He  may  prepare  ??,  but "  the  just  shall  put  it  on, 
and  the  innocent  shall  divide  the  silver. 

18  Hebuildeth  his  house  "as  a  moth,  and  as  a  booth 
that  the  keeper  maketh.  ^ 

19  The  rich  man  shall  lie  down,  but  he  shall  ^  not  i 
be  gathered  :  ^  he  openeth  his  eyes,  and  he  is  not. 

20  Terrors  take  hold  on  him  as  waters,  a  tempest 
stealeth  him  away '  ia  the  night. 

21  The  east  wind  (-arrieth  him  away,  and  he  de- 
parteth ;  and,  asa  storm,  "hurleth  himoutof  his  place. 

22  For  God  shall  cast  upon  him,  and  ftot  spare :  he 
would  fain  "  flee  out  of  his  hand. 

23  Men  shall  *"  clap  their  hands  at  him,  anu  shall 
hiss  him  out  of  his  place. 

CHAPTER  XXVni. 

There  is  a  knowledge  of  natural  things. 

SURELY  there  is  a  vein  for  the  silver,  and  a  place 
for  gold  xchere  they  *  fine  it. 

2  Iron  is  taken  out  ot  the  earth,  and  "  brass  is  molten

3  He  sGtteth  "  an  end  to  darkness,  and  searcheth 
out  all  ^  perfection :  the  stones  of  darkness,  and  the 
shadow  of  death. 

4  The  flood  breaketh  out  from  the  inhabitant;  even 
the  waters  forgotten  of  the  foot :  they  are  dried  up, 
they  are  gone  away  from  men. 

5  As  for  the  earth,  out  of  it  cometh  *  bread ;  and 
Hnder  it  is  turned  up  as  it  were  fire. 

6  The  stones  of  it  are  the  place  of  sapphires ;  and

oiimipotent  cannot  beunjust....31  Man  must  humble  hiinsels' 
unto  God....34  Llihu  reproveth  Job. 

FURTHERMORE,  Elihu  answered  and  said, 
2  Hear  my  words,  O "  ye  wise  men ;  and  give 
ear  "  unto  me,  ye  that  have  knowledge  : 

8  For  the  *■  ear  trietii  words,  as  the  mouth  tasteth 
meat. 

4  Let  us  choose  to  us  judgment:  let  us  know 
among  ourselves  what  is  "good.  \ 

.5  For  Job  hath  "  said,  I  am  righteous :  luid  God  ] 
hath  taken  away  my  juf1"-ment. 

6  Should  '  I  lie  agauist  my  right  ?  my  wound  is 
inctirable  <•  without  transgression. 

7  Whatman  is  "like  Job,  w/iodrinketh  up  scorning 
'  like  water ; 

8  Which "  goetli  in  company  with  the  workers  of 
iniquity,  and  walketh  with  w  icked  men  .'' 

9  For  he  hath  '  said,  It  profitetli  a  man  "^  nothing 
tJKJt  he  should  delight  himself  ^vitll  God. 

10  Therefore  hearken  unto  me,  ye  men  of  under- 
standing :  Far  be  it  from  God,  that  he  should  do 
"  wickedness ;  and  from  the  Almighty,  that  he  should 
commit  iniquity. 

11  For  the  work  ofa  man  sliall  he  "render  unto  him,  I  Irom  my  sm  ."^ 
and  cause  every  man  to  ^  find  according  to  his  ways,  t     4  1  will  ''  answer  thee,  and  thy  companions  with

stroyed. 

26  He  strikcth  them  as  wicked  men  in  the  "  open

27  Because  they "  turned  back  from  him,  and  would 
not  consider  any  of  his  ways : 

28  So  that  they  cause  the  "cry  of  the  poor  to  come 
unto  him,  and  ^  he  heareth  the  cry  of  the  afllicted.

against  a  man  only  : 

30  That  the  hypocrite  reign  not,  lest  the  people  be

done  iniquity,  I  will  do  *  no  more.

compense it,  whether  thou  refuse,  or  whether  thou 
choose ;  and  not  I:  thereibre  speak  what  thou  knowest. 

3i  Let  men  of  understanding  tell  me,  and  let  a 
wise  man  hearken  unto  me. 

35  Job  hath  spoken  without  knowledge,  and  his 
{  words  ivere  without  wisdom.

XL....XL1  Of  the  behemoth  and  leviathan 

16  Lo  now,  his  strength  is  in  his  "  loins,  and  his  f,^^{^^ 
force  is  in  the  navel  of  his  belly.  iir.  lijo 

17  He  moveth  his  tail  like  a  cedar  :  the  sinews  of  ^;^^^ 
his  stones  are  wrapped  together.  , .   E,;b «  J 

18  His  bones  are  as  strong  pieces  of  brass;  his  "''      "' 
bones  rt/e  like  bars  of  iron.  ^.r,   »   , 

19  He  is  the  "  chief  of  the  way.s  ofGoff  rlic  that  i  r.  iif. 
made  him  can  make  his  sword  to  approach  vntohiin.  '  * 

20  Surely  the  mountains  bring  him  forth  >  food, 
where  all  the  beasts  of  the  field  play. 

21  He  lieth  under  the  shady  trees,  in  the  covert  of 
the  reed,  and  fens. 

22  The  shady  trees  cover  him  iciih  their  shadow  ; 
the  *  willows  of  the  brook  compass  him  about. 

23  Behold,  he  drinketh  up  a  river,  mu/ liasteth  not : 
he  trustelh  that  he  can  draw  up  "  Jordan  into  his  ;«<■»" 
mouth. 

2^i  He  takcth  it  with  his  eyes :  hts  "  nose  pierceth 
through  snares. 

CHAPTER  XLT. 

Of  God's  great  power  in  the  leviathan.

3  Will  he  make  many  "■  supplications  unto  thee  ?  i^King*  m 
will  he  sneak  soft  words  unto  thee  ?  di'so,** 

4  Will  he  make  a  covenant  with  thee  ?  wilt  thou  ,,oen.i,:8.

6  Wilt  thou  '  play  with  him  as  tvith  a  bird  ?  wilt  {»»„";,";;

ri  I  will  not  conceal  his  parts,  nor  his  power,  nor  '^'jx^'  *" 
his  comely  proportion.  vin.  \  «. 

13  Who  can  discover  the  face  of  his  garment  ?  or 
who  can  come  to  him  with  his  double  bridle  .'' 

14  Who  can  open  the  doors  of  his  face  ?  f  his  teeth  l^J^l.'ll 
are  terrible  round  about.  u'r'"""' 

13  His  scales  are  his  pride,  shut  up  together  as  I'vH^*. 
with  a  close  seal.  ^J| 

16  One  is  so  near  to  another,  that  no  air  can  come 
between  them. 

17  They  are  joined  one  to  another,  they  stick  to- 
gether, that  they  cannot  be  sundered. 

18  By  his  neesings  a  light  doth  shine,  and  his  eyes 
are  lik    the  eyelids  of  the  morning. 

19  t  of  his  mouth  go  burning  lamps,  and  sparks 
of  fire  ,  cap  out. 

20  Out  of  his  nostrils  goeth  smoke,  as  ont  of  a 
seething-pot  or  caldron. 

21  His  breath  kindleth  coals,  and  a  flame  goeth 
out  of  his  mouth. 

22  In  his  neck  remaineth  strength,  and  sorrow  is 
turned  into  joy  before  him. 

23  The  flakes  of  his  flesh  are  joined  together : 
ihrv  are  firm  in  themselves ;  they  cannot  be  moved.

of  a  woman  in  travail.

PSALM  LV.  J 

David  in  liis  prayer  comi)laini'tii  of  his  fearful  case.  | 

Tu  the  chiff  Musician  on  Nci;inoth,  Maschil.     A\ 
Psalm  of  David.  \ 

G<  IVE  ear  to  my  prayer,  O  God  ;  and  "  hide  not? 
T  th} self  from  n)y  sumilication.  ; 

2  Attend  unto  me,  and  hear  me  :  "  I  mourn  in  my  i 
comi)laint,  and  make  "^  a  noise  ;  | 

3  Because  of  the  ''  voice  oltlie  enemy,  because  of  1; 
the  oppression  of  the  wicked  :  for  they  "cast  iniquity  i; 
upon  me,  and  in  wrath  they  '  hate  me. 

4  My  heart  is  sore  i)aincd  within  me ;  and  the 
^terrors  of  death  are  fallen  ui)on  me. 

5  Fearfuhuvss  and  trembling  are  come  upon  me, 
and  horror  hath  ''  overwhelmed  me. 

6  And  [  said.  Oh  that  1  had  winss  like  a  dove  !  for 
then  would  I  '  llee  away,  and  be  at  rest. 

7  Lo  thin  would  1  wander  far  off,  and  remain  in 
the  ''  wilderiiess.     Sclah. 

{>  I  would  '  hasten  my  escape  from  the  windy  storm 
losam. n,  fl'.w/ tempest. 

9  Destroy,  O  Lonn,  and  "'  divide  their  tongues  : 
for  I  have  seen  violence  and  strife  in  the  city. 

10  Day  and  ni^ht  they  so  about  it  upon  the  walls 
tlien.'of ;  mischief  also  and  sorrow  arc  in  the  "midst 
of  it. 

1 1  "Wickedness  is  in  the  midst  thereof;  dcceitand 
guile  depart  not  from  her  stre(;ts. 

12  For  it  was  ^  not  an  enemy  that  reproached  me  : 
then  could  I  have  borne  it ;  neither  xms  it  he  that 
hated  me  that  did  majiuify  A /w.sf//' against  me  ;  then 
I  would  have  hid  myself  from  him  ; 

13 But  it  was  thou,  a  man  mine  'equal,  'my  guide, 
and  mine  "  accjuaintance. 

14  We  took  sweet  counsel, together,  aiid  walked 
unto  the  house  of  God  '  in  company. 

15  Let  death  seize  upon  them,  and  let  them  go 
down  "quick  into  hell:  for  wickedness  ?s  in  their 
dwellings,  and  anions,  them.

47  He  destroyed  their  vines  with  hail,  and  their

48  H(;  gave  up  their  cattle  also  to  the  hail,  and 
their  flocks  to  ''  hot  thunderbolts. 

49  He  cast  upon  them  the  fierceness  of  his  anger,  c 
wrath,  and  indignation,  and  trouble,  by  sending  f  evil  \

50  He  made  a  way  to  his  anger ;  he  spared  not

and  chose  not  the  tribe  of  Ephraim  ; 

68  But  chose  the  tribe  of  Juduh,  the  mount  Sion, 
;  which  he  loved. 

69  And  he  '  built  his  sanctuary  like  high  pahices, 
like  the  earth  which  he  hath  established  for  ever.

JT is  ''a  ^ood  thiit!^  to  give  tl-.anks  unto  the  Lono,  lp.  u?,. 
and  to  sing  praises  unto  thy  name,  O  Most  High : 

2  To  shew  forth  thy  loving-kindness  in  the "  morn- 
ing, and  thy  faithfulness ''  every  night, 

3  Upon  an  instrument  often  strings,  and  unon  the 
psaltery  ;  upon  the  harp  with  a  solemn  souncl. 

4  For  thou.  Lord,  hast  made  me  glad  through  thy 
work;  I  will  triumph  in  the  *  works  of  thy  hands. 

5  O  Lord,  how  great  are  thy  works !  and  thy 
thoughts  are  very  '  deep. 

6 « A  brutish  man  knoweth  not ;  neither  doth  a  fool 
understand  this.  '^' 

7  When  the  wicked  spring  as  the  •"  grass,  and  when  ''  ^ 
all  the  workers  of  iniquity  do  flourish  ;  it  is  that  they 
shall  be  destroyed  for  ever : 

8  But  thou.  Lord,  art '  most  high  for  evermore. 

9  For,  lo,  thine  enemies,  O  Lord,  for,  lo,  thine 
enemies  shall  perish  :  all  the  workers  of  iniquity  shall 
be  *  scattered ; 

10  But  my  horn  shalt  thou  exalt  like  the '  horn  of ,

I   riifi  use  of  the  provt"rb.s....7  An  e.^lioriation  to  k-av  God  ami

THE  '  Proverbs  of  Solomon,  the  son  of  David,

thcMvords  of  understanding  ; 

3  To  receive  the  instruction  ''  of  wisdom,  justice,

4  To  give  f  subtilty  to  "the  simple,  to  the  young

5  A  wise  man  will  hear,  and  "  will  increase  learn- 
;^^^?.    ing  ;  and  a  man  of  understanding  shall  attain  unto 

wise  counsels ; 

6  To  understand  a  proverb,  and  the  interpretation ; 
the  words  of  the  wise,  and  their  ''dark  sayings. 

7  The  '  fearof  the  Lord  /stlie  beginning  of  knowl- 
cdge  :  6i/^  fools  desj)ise  wisdom  and  instruction. 

8  My  son,  "  hear  the  instruction  of  thy  father,  and 
forsake  not  the  law  of  thy  mother  : 

9  For  they  shall  be  'an  ornament  of  grace  unto 
thy  head,  and  chains  about  thy  neck. 

10  My  son,  if  sinners  "'entice  thee,  "consent  thou 
not. 

\\  If  they  "say,  p  Come  with  us,  let  us  lay  wait 
lor  blood,  let  ns  lurk  privily  for  the  innocent  without 
cause : 

12  Let  us  ''  swallow  them  up  alive,  as  tin;  grave  ;

14  Cast  in  thy  lot  among  us;  let  us  all  have  onei 
purse.  ; 

15  Mv  son,  •  walk  not  thou  in  the  wav  with  them :  s 
retrain  thy  loot  from  their  path  : 

16  For  their  "  feet  run  to  evil,  and  make  haste  to 
shed  Iilood  :  5 

1 7  (Surely  in  vain  the  net  is  spread  in  the  sight  of  j

18  And  they  lay  wait  "  for  their  oivn  blood  :  they 
lurk  privily  for  their  own  lives.  i 

19  So  are  the  ways  of  every  one  that  ^  is  greedy  | 
ot  gam  ;  which  ''  taketh  away  the  life  of  the  owners! 
thereof.  i

that  is  of  a  meiiy  heart  hath  a  continual  feast. 

IG ''  Bettor  is  little  with  the  fear  of  the  Lord,  than 
great  treasure  and  trouble  therewith. 

17  Better  is  a  dinner  of  herbs  where  love  is,  than 
'  a  stalled  ox  and  hatred  therewith. 

Ifi  ''  A  wrathful  man  stirreth  tii)  strife  :  but  he  that

20  A  wise  son  maketh  a  glad  fatlier  :  but  a  foolish 
man  desniseth  his  mother. 

21  ''1  oily  is  joy  to  him  that  is  destitute  of  wisdom :

tion to  the  Lord  :  though  "  hand  join  in  hand,  he 
shall  not  be  unpunished. 

6  By  mercy  and  truth  iniquity  is  '  i)urged  ;  and  by 
the  ■"  fear  of  the  Lord  men  depart  from  evil.

31  The  hoary  head  is  a  crown  of  glory,  if  it  be  ''<  *

taketh  a  city.

2  "^  A  Avise  servant  shall  have  'jle  over  a  son  that 
causcth  shame,  and  shall  have  pai..of the  inheritance 
among  the  brethren. 

3  The  fining-pot  is  for  silver,  and  the  '  furnace  for 
gold  :  but  the  Lord  "  trieth  the  hearts. 

4  A  w  ieked  doer  giveth  heed  to  false  lips ;  and  a 
liar  giveth  ear  '  to  a  naughty  tongue.

CHAPTER  I. 

The  Preiu'lier  slioweth  that  all  human  courses  are  vain. 

THE  words  of  the  Preacher,  the  son  of  DaviJ, 
*  king  of  Jerusalem. 

2  Vanity  of  vanities,  saith  the  Preacher,  vanity  of 
vanities ;  ^  all  is  vanity. 

3  What  profit  hath  a  man  of  all  his  labour  which 
he  ''  taketh  under  the  sun  ? 

4  One  generation  i)assetli  away,  and  another  ge- 
neration Cometh  :  but  the  ''  earth  abideth  for  ever. 

5  The  smi  also  arisetl),  and  the  sun  goeth  down, 
and  "  hastcth  to  his  nlace  where  he  arose. 

6  The  wind  goeth  toward  the  south,  and  turneth 
r-bout  unto  the  north  :  it  ^  whirleth  about  continu-  i 
ally;  and  the  wind  returncth  again  according  to  his 
circuits. 

7  All  the  rivers  run  into  the  sea  ;  yet  the  sea  is  not 
full :  unto  the  place  from  whence  the  rivers  come, 
thither  they  « return  again.  .„.    „,^  ._ ,

done :  'awA  there  is  no  '  iiew  tlimg  under  the  sun.     \      12  And  I  turiu  d  myself  to  behold  wisdom,  and 

10  is  there  any  thing  whereof  it  may  be  said,  |  'madness,  and  folly  :  for  what  ran  the  man  do  that 
bee,  this  IS  new  .?  it  hath  been  alrtiady  of  old  time,  I  cometh  '  after  the  king?  even  that  which  hath  been 
which  was  before  us.  |  already  done. 

1 1  1  here  is  '  no  remembrance  ot  former  th ings ;  |      1  .^3  Then  I  saw  that '  wisdom  cxcelleth  folly,  as  far 
neither  sluill  there  be  any  remembrance  ot  things \ns  light  cxcelleth  darkness.

12  Tl  ™1  the  1  readier  was  kuig  over  Israel  in  Jc-|  fool  walketh  in  darkness:  and  I  myself  perceived  also 


)     5  I  made  me  gardens  and  ^orchards,  and  I  planted 
I  trees  in  them  "  of  all  kind  of  fruits ; 

6  I  made  me  '  pools  of  Avater,  to  water  therewith 
the  wood  that  bringeth  forth  trees ; 

7  I  got  me  servants  and  maidens,  and  had  servants 
born  ill  my  house  ;  also  I  had  ''  great  possessions  of 
great  and  small  cattle  above  all  that  were  in  Jerusa- 
lem before  me ; 

8  1  gathered  me  also  silver  and  gold,  and  the  pecu- 
liar treasure  of  kings  and  of  the  provinces  ;  1  gat  me 
men-singers  and  women-singers,  and  the  delights  of 
the  sons  of  men,  as  '  musical  instruments,  and  that 
of  all  sorts. 

9  So  I  was  great,  and  increased  more  than  all  that 
were  before  me  in  Jerusalem  :  also  my  wisdom  "  re- 
mained with  me. 

10  And  wliatsocver  "  mine  eyes  dcsirec|Lkcpt  not

dieth  the  wise  man?  '■  As  the  fool. 

1 7  Therefore  I '  hated  life ;  because  the  work  that 
is  wrought  underthe  sun  is  grievous  untome :  for  all 
is  vanity  and  vexation  of  spirit.

salem ;  yea,  my  heart  had '  great  exi)eriencc  of  wis-

17  And  I  *  gave  my  heart  to  know  wis*lom,  and  to 
know  *■  madness  and  folly  :  I  perceived  that  this  also 
is  vexation  of  spirit. 

18  For  in  much  wisdom  ts  much  "  grief;  and  he 
that  iucrcaseth  knowledge  increaseth  sorrow.

CHAPTER  III. 

Tlie  exceiluncy  of  God's  work. 

TO  every  thing  there  is  a  season,  and  a  time  to 
every  purpose  under  the  heaven  : 

2  A  time  to  be  '  born,  and  a  time  to  ''  die  :  a  time 
to "  plant,  and  a  time  to  pluck''  up  that  ivhich  /splanted : 

3  A  time  ^  to  kill,  and  a  time  to  heal :  a  time  to 
break  down,  and  a  time  to  build  up : 

4  A  lime  to  '  weep,  and  a  time  to « laugh  :  a  time 
to  mourn,  and  a  time  to  dance  : 

5  A  time "  to  castaway  stones,  and  a  time  to '  gather 
stones  together :  a  time  to  embrace,  and  a  time  to 
"  refrain  li'om  embracing. 

6  A  time  to  get,  and  a  time  to  lose :  a  time  to  keep, 
and  a  time  to  cast  aw«y : 

7  A  time  to  rend,  and  a  time  to  sew  :  a  time  to 
'^  '  keep  silence,  and  a  time  to  speak  : 

8  A  time  to  love,  and  a  time  to  "  hate  :  a  time  of 
war,  and  a  time  of  peace. 

9  "What  profit  hath  he  that  workcth  in  that  wherein 
he  laboureth  ? 

10  I  have  °  seen  the  travail  which  God  hath  given 
to  the  sons  of  men  to  be  exercised  in  it. 

.  1 1  P  He  hath  made  every  thiuf^  beautiful  in  his 
time  :  also  he  hath  set  the  world  in  their  heart ;  so 
that  no  man  can  ifind  out  the  work  that  God  maketh 
Irom  the  beginning  to  the  end. 

12  I  know  that  there  is  no  good  '  in  them,  but  for 
a  man  to  rejoice,  and  to  do  good  in  his  life. 

13  And  also  that  every  man  should  '  cat  and  drink, 
and  en  joy  the  good  of  all  his  labour,  it » the  giftof  God. 

14  1  know  that  whatsoever  God  doeth,  it  shall  be 
for  ever :  "  nothing  can  be  put  to  it,  nor  anv  thing 

taken  from  it :  and  God  doeth  it  that  men  should  fear 
before  him.

neither  say  thou  before  the  '  angel,  that  it  icas  an  * 
error :  wherefore  should  God  be  ''  angry  at  thy  voice, 
and  destroy  the  work  of  thy  hands  ? 

7  For  in  the  multit'ide  of  dreams  and  many  words 
there  are  also  divers  vanities :  but '  fear  thou  God. 

8  If  thou  secst  the  oppression  of  the  poor,  and 
I  ch.  12, 14.  violent  perverting  of  judgment  and  justice  in  a  prov- 
ince, marvel  not  at  the  matter :  forVte  that  is  higher 

raPs.12,5.  than  the  highest '°  regardeth ;  and  there  be  "  higher 
Kings   than  they. 

9  Moreover,  the  profit  of  the  earth  is  for  all :  the 
king  himself  "  is  served  by  the  field. 

10  He  that ''  loveth  silver  shall  '^  not  be  satisfied 
with  silver ;  nor  he  that  loveth  abundance  with  in- 
crease.    This  is  also  vanity.

CHAPTER  yi. 

The  vanity  ofiiciics  without  use. 

THERE  is/  an  evil  which  I  have  seen  under  the 
sun,  and  it  is  common  among  men  : 

2  A  man  to  whom  God  hath  given  riches,  wealth, 
and  honour,  so  that  he  wantetli  nothing  for  his  soul 
of  all  that  he  'desiieth,  yet  God  giveth  him  "not 
power  to  eat  thereof,  but  a  ''  stranger  eateth  it :  this 
is  vanity,  and  it  Is  an  evil  disease. 

3  If  a  man  "  bi.^get  a  hundred  cidldren,  and  live 
many  years,  so  that  the  days  of  his  years  be  many, 
and  his  soul  be  'not  filled  with  good,  and  also  that 
he  have  « no  burial ;  I  say,  that  an  untimely  birth  is 
better  than  he : 

4  For  he  ''  cometh  in  v\  illi  vanity,  and  departeth 
in  '  darkness,  and  his  name  shall  be  covered  with 
darkness. 

5  Moreover,  he  hath  not  seen  the  sun,  nor  known 
ufii!  thiu"' :  this  hath  ''  more  rest  than  the  other. 

6  Yea.  though  he  live '  a  thousand  years  twice  told,  5     1 9  Wisdom  '  strengthenelh  the  wise 
yet  hath  ne  seen  no  good :  do  not  all  go  to  one  place  ?l  ten  mighty  7nen  which  are  in  the  city.

5  It  is  better  to  hear  the  ''  rebuke  of  the  wise,  tiian 
for  a  man  to  hear  the  song  of  fools. 

G  J'or  as  the  crackling  of  thorns  under  a  pot,  so  is 
liie  '  laughter  of  the  fool.     This  also  is  vanity. 

7  Surely  oppression  maketh  ''  a  wise  man  mad  ;

anger  resteth  in  the  bosom  of  fools.

mer  days  were  better  than  these  ?  for  thou  dost  not  'it.u,i-!

11  H  Wisdom  is  p  good  with  an  inheritance  ;  and  ''^ '''■'' 
by  it  there  is  profit  to  them  that  see  the  sun. 

12  For  wisdom  is  a  ■•  defence,  and  '  money  ?.s  a 
defence :  but  the  excellency  of  knowledge  is,  that 
wisdom  giveth  life  to  them  that  have  it. 

13  Consider 'the  work  of  God:  for  who  can 
make  that  *  straight  which  he  hath  made  crooked  .'* 

14  In  the  day  of  prosperity  be  joyful,  but  in  the  ""•"•-

one  over  against  the  other,  to  the  enil  that  man 
should  find  nothing  after  him. 

15  All  thingshave  I  seen  in  the  days  of  my  vanity :  x  i  icmg, 
there  is  a  just  man  that  "  perisheth  in  his  righteous-  ^'' "'' 
ness,  and  there  is  a  wicked  viun  that  ^  prolongeth  >^ '';"."' 
his  life  in  his  wickedness.  '■  '''■"•  3>  ^

take  away  Trom  Jerusalem, ami  from  Jiidah,thu 
stay  and  the  "  start',  the  wliolu  stay  of  bread,  and  the

2  The  inishty  man,  and  the  man  of  war,  the 'jiidse,

o  The  captain  of  fifty,  and  the  honourahle  man 
and  the  counsellor,  and  the  cunnin,^  artiliccr,  and  th 
clociaent  orator. 

4  And  I  will  ftive  ''children  to  be  ihcii'  prince.';,  and 
f  babes  shall  rule  over  thent. 

5  And  the  "  people  shall  be  omiressed,  every  one

'  child  shall  behave  himself  moudly  against  the  an- 
cient, and  the  base  against  the  honourable. 

G  When  a  man  shall  « take  hold  of  his  brother,  of 
tlie  house  of  his  father,  saying,  Thou  hast  clolhins,  be

a  healer  :  for  in  my  hous(!  is  neither  bread  nor  cloth- 
ing :  make  nie  not  a  ruler  of  the  people. 

8  For  Jerusalem  is  'ruined,  and  .Indah  is  fallen; 
because  their  "  tongue  and  tiieir  doings  arc  against 
the  Lord,  to  provoke  the  eyes  of  his  glory. 

9  The  '  show  of  their  countenance  doth  witness 
against  them,  and  they  declare  their  sin  "'  as  Sodom, 
they  hide  it  not :  wo  unto  their  soul !  for  they  have 
rewarded  evil  unto  themselves. 

.  1 0  Say  ye  to  the  "  righteous,  that  it  shall  be  "  well 
ivitk  him ;  for  they  shall  eat  the  fruit  of  their  doings. 

1 1  Wo  unto  the  wicked !  it  shall  be  ''  ill  with  him ; 
for  the  reward  of  his  hands  shall  be  given  him. 

12  As  fur  my  peoi)le,  children  (/re  their  oppressors, 
and  "  women  rule  over  them.  O  my  pcoi)le,  they 
which  lead  thee  ■■  cause  thee  to  err,  and  destroy  the

13  Tile  Lord  "standoth  up  to  iilead,  and  staudeth 
to  *  judge  the  jieople. 

14-  The  Lord  will  enter  into  judgment  with  the 
ancients  of  his  people,  and  the  "  princes  thereof :  for 
ye  have  eaten  up  the  "  viiieyard ;  the  spoil  of  the 
poor  is  in  your  houses. 

16  What  mean  ye  that  ye  >'bcat  my  people  to 
pieces,  and  ^  grind  the  faces  of  the  poor?  saith  the 
Lord  God  ot  hosts. 

16  Moreover,  the  Lord  saith,  Because  the  daugh-

CHAPTER  XXI. 

The  prophet  bewaileth  the  captivity  ol  God's  people.  _ 

THE  burden  of  the  *  desert  of  the  sea.  As  whirl- 
winds in  the  south  pass  through  ;  so  it  cometh 
from  the  desert,  from  a  terrible  land. 

2  A  grievous  vision  is  declared  unto  me ;  The 
"treacherous  dealer  dealeth  treacherously,  and  the 
spoiler "  spoileth.  Go  up,  O  Elam  :  besiege,  O 
Media  :  all  the  sighing  thereof  have  I  made  to  cease, 

3  Therefore  are  my ''  loins  filled  with  pain ;  pangs 
have  taken  hold  upon  me,  as  the  pangs  of  a  *  woman 
that  travaileth  :  I  was  bowed  down  at  the  hearing  o/ 
it ;  I  was  dismayed  at  the  seeing  of  it. 

4  My  heart  panted,  fearfulness  affrighted  me :  the 
'  nightof  my  pleasure  hath  he  turned  into  lear  unto  me. 

6  « Prepare  the  table,  watch  in  the  watch-tower, 
^  eat,  drink :  arise,  ye  princes,  and  anoint  the  shield. 

6  For  thus  hath  the  Lord  said  unto  me.  Go,  set 
'a  watchman,  let  him  declare  "  what  he  seetli. 

7  And  he  saw  a  '  chariot  with  a  couple  of  horse 
men,  a  chariot  of  asses,  and  a  chariot  of  camels ; 
and  he  hearkened  "diligently  with  much  heed. 

8  And  he  cried, "  A  lion  :  My  lord,  I  stand  "con 
tinuallyupon  the  p  watch-tovver  in  the  day  time,  and 
I  am  set  m  my  ward  whole  nights  ; 

9  And,  behold,  here  cometh  a  chariot  of  men,  with 


14  The  inhabitants  of  the  land  of  Tenia  brought  y  cicu.  i 
water  to  him  that  was  thirsty,  they  prevented  with  z.^pim, 
their  bread  him  that  fled. 

15  For  they  "fled  from  the  swords,  from  the 
drawn  sword,  and  from  tiie  bent  bow,  and  from  the 
grievousnessof  war.  . 

16  For  thus  hath  the  Lord  said  unto  nip,  Withiij  ^^^  ^^  ^^ 
a  °  year,  according  to  the  years  of  a  hireling,  and  all  "  '   ' 
the  glory  of  Kedar  shall  fail : 

17  And  the  residue  of  the  number  of  archers,  the 
mighty  men  of  the  cluklren  of ''  Kedar,  shall  be  "di- 
minished :  for  the  Lord  God  of  Israel  hath  spoken  it.

33  Therefore  thus  saitli  the  Lord  concerning  the 
king  of  Assyria,  He  shall  not  come  into  this  '  city,  nor : 
shoot  an  arrow  there,  nor  come  before  it  with  shields, 
nor  cast  a  bank  against  it.  - 

34  By  the  "'  way  thai  he  came,  by  the  same  shall , 
he  return,  and  shall  not  come  into  this  city,  saith  the  i 
Lord.  .     i 

35  For  I  will  defend  this  city  to  save  it,  "  for  mine  [ 
own  sake,  and  for  my  servant  David's  sake. 

36  Then  the  angel  of  the  Lord  went  forth,  "and 
smote  in  the  camp  of  the  Assyrians  a  hundred  and 
fourscore  and  five  thousand  :  and  w  hen  they  arose : 
early  in  the  morning,  behold,  they  uc/e  all  dead! 


14  Like  a  crane,  or  a  swalknv,  so  did  I  ''chatter ; 
I  did  "^  mourn  as  a  dove  :  mine  eyes  fail  with  '  look- 
ing upward  :  O  Lord,  I  am  oi)i)ressed ;  undertake 
for  me. 

15  '  What  shall  I  say  ?  he  hath  both  spoken  unto 
me,  and  himself  hath  done  it :  I  shall  go  softly  all  my 
years  in  '  the  bitterness  of  my  soul. 

IG  O  Lord,  "  by  these  things  men  live,  and  in  all 
these  //tn/ssjsthelifeof  my  spirit:  sowiltthoiuecover 
me  and  make  mc  to  live. 

17  Behold,  for  iicace  I  had  great  bitterness ;  but 
thou  hast  in  love  to  my  soul  delivered  it  from  the  pit 

of  corruption  :  for  thou  liast  cast  all  my  sins  "  behind  i^^-^--

street,  and  etiuity  eamiot  enter. 

15  Yea,  truth  "faileth  ;  and  lie //(«< ''departeth 
from  evil  maketh  himself  a  i)rcy  :  and  the  Lord  saw 
//,  and  it  displea.sed  him  that  there  was  no  judgment.

jdered  that //le/y  jww  no  intercessor;  therefore '' his 
^arm  brought  salvation  unto  him  ;  and  his  righteous-

1 7  For  he  "  put  on  righteousness  as  a  brcasti)late, 
and  a  helmet  ot  salvation  upon  his  head ;  and  he  put

repay,  fury  to  «  his  adversaries,  recompense  to  his 
enemies ;   to  the  islands  he  will  repay  recompense. 

19  So  shall  they  fear  the  name  ot  the  Lord  from 
the  "  west,  and  his  glory  from  the  rising  of  the  sun. 
When  the  enemy  sliall  come  in  like  '  a  flood,  the 
''  Spirit  of  the  Lord  shall  lift  up  a  standard  against

is  in  their  hands. 

7  Their  ""  feet  run  to  evil,  and  they  make  haste  to

X  the  priests  that  were  in  '  Ajiathoth,  in  the  land 
of  Benjamin : 

2  To  whom  the  word  of  the  Lord  '^  came  in  the 
days  of  ^  Josiah  the  son  of  Anion  king  of  Judah,  in 
the  thirteenth  year  of  his  reign. 

3  It  came  also  in  the  days  of  Jehoiakim  the  son  of 
Josiah  king  of  Judah,  unto  the  ||  end  of  the  eleventh 
year  of  Zedekiah  the  son  of  Josiah  king  of  Judah, 
unto  the  carrying  away  of  Jerusalem  captive  in  the 
hfth  montli. 

4  Then  the  word  of  the  Lord  came  unto  me,

o  Before  I '  fori'ied  thee  in  the  belly  ^  I  knew  thee ;  |  18  For,  behold,  I  have  made  thee  this  day  a  '  de- 
and  before  thou  earnest  forth  out  of  the  womb  I  i  fenced  city,  and  an  iron  pillar,  and  brazen  walls, 
''  sanctified  thee  ;  and  I  ordained  thee  a  prophet  unto  \  against  the  whole  "  land ;  against  the  kings  of  Judah,

an  ''  e^  il  shall  breali  forth  upon  all  the  inhabitants  of

15  For,  lo,  I  will  °  call  all  the  families  of  the  king- 
doms of  the  north,  saith  the  Lord  ;  and  they  shall 
come,  and  they  shall  "^  set  every  one  his  tlirone  at 
the  entering  ot  the  gates  of  Jerusalem,  and  against 
all  the  walls  thereof  round  about,  and  against  all  the 
cities  of  Judah. 

16  And  I  will  utttn-  my  judgments "  against  them 
touching  all  their  wickedness,  '  who  have  forsaken 
me,  and  have  burned  incense  unto  other  gods,  and 
norshinped  the  workg  of  their  own  hands. 

17  Ihou  therefore^  gird  up  thy  loins,  and  arise,  and 
speak  unto  them  all  that  I  command  thee :  be  not  dis-

6  Then  said  I, '  Ah,  Lord  God  !  behold,  ^  I  cannot  \  and  against  the

men  give  them  the  cup  of  consolation  to  *  drink  for 
theirfathcr  or  for  their  mother. 

8  Thou  shalt  not  also  go  into  the  '  hou.se  of  feast- 
ing, to  sit  with  them  to  eat  and  to  drink. 

9  For  thus  saith  the  Lord  of  hosts,  the  God  of 
Israel ;  Behold,  I  will  cause  to  cease  out  of  this  place 
« in  your  eyes,  and  in  your  days,  the  voice  ''  of  mirth, 
and  the  voice  of  gladness,  the  voice  of  the  bride- 
groom, and  tne  voice  of  the  bride. 

10  And  it  shall  come  to  pass,  when  thou  shalt  shew 
tliis  people  all  these  words,  and  they  shall  say  unto 
thee, '  Wherefore  hath  the  Lord  pronounced  all  this 
great  evil  against  us  ?  or  "  what  is  our  iniquity  ?  or 
what  is  our  sin,  that  wc  have  committed  against  the 
Lord  our  God? 

1 1  Then  shalt  thou  say  unto  them, '  Because  your 
fathers  have  forsaken  me,  saith  the  Lord,  and  have 
walked  after  other  gods,  and  have  served  them,  and 
liave  vvorshii)ped  them,  and  have  forsaken  me,  and 
have  not  kept  my  law  : 

12  And  ye  have  ""  done  worse  than  your  fathers ; 
(for,  behold,  ye  walk  every  one  after  the  imagina- 
tion of  his  evil  heart,  that  they  may  "  not  hearken 
unto  me ;) 

13  Therefore  will  I  "  cast  you  out  of  this  land  into 
a  land  that  ye  know  not,  neither  ye  nor  your  fathers ; 
and  there  shall  ye  serve  other  gods  day  and  night, 
where  I  will  not  ^  shew  you  favour. 

14  *>  Therefore,  behold,  the  '  days  come,  saith  the 
Lord,  that  it '  shall  no  more  be  said,  The  Lord 
liveth  that  brought  up  the  children  of  Israel  out  of 
the  land  of  Egypt; 

15  But,  The  Lord  liveth  that  brought  up  the 
*  children  of  Israel  from  the  land  of  the  north,  and 
from  all  the  lands  whither  he  had  driven  them  :  JUid 
I  will "  bring  them  again  into  their  land  that^  gave 
unto  their  fathers. 

16  Beliold,  I  will  send  for  many  "fishers,  sahh 
the  Lord,  and  they  shall  fish  them ;  and  after  will  I 
send  for  many  hunters,  and  they  shall  hunt  them 
from  every  mountain,  and  from  every  hill,  and  out 
of  the  holes  of  the  rocks. 

17  For ''  mine  eyes  are  upon  all  their  ways :  they 
are  *  not  hid  from  my  face,  neither  is  their  iniquity 
hid  from  mine  eyes. 

18  And  first  I  will  'recompense  their  iniquity  and 
their  sin  double ;  because  they  have  defiled  my  land, 
they  have  filled  mine  inheritance  with  the  "carcases 
of  their  detestable  and  abominable  things.

CHAPTER  XVIII. 

Under  the  typi;  of  a  pottev  is  shewed  God's  absohite  iiowcr 

THE  word  which  came  to  Jeremiah  from  the 
Lord,  saying, 

2  °  Arise,  and  go  down  to  ^  the  potter's  house,  and 
"thei:^  I  will  cause  thee  to  hear  my  words. 

3  Then  "I  went  down  to  the  potter's  house,  and, 
behold,  he  wrought  a  work  on  the  wheels. 

4  And  the  vessel  that  '  he  made  of  clay  was 
marred  in  the  hand  of  tlie  potter;  so  he  made  it  again 
another  vessel,  'as  seemed  good  to  the  potter  to 
make  i?. 

5  Then  the  word  of  the  Lord  came  to  me, 
saying, 

6  0  house  of  Israel,  cannot  I  do  with  you  ^  as  this 
potter  ?  saith  the  Lord.  Behold,  as  the  clay  is  in 
the  potter's  hand, ''  so  are  ye  in  my  hand,  O  house  of 
Israel. 

7  At  what  instant  I  shall  speak  concerning  a  nation, 
and  concerning  a  kingdom, '  to  pluck  up,  and  to  pull 
down,  and  to  destroy  it : 

8  If  that  nation,  against  w  horn  I  havenronounccd, 
''  turn  from  their  evil,  I  will  'repent  of  the  evil  that  1 
thought  to  do  unto  them.    ■ 

9  And  at  what  instant  I  shall  speak  concerning  a 
nation,  and  concerning  a  kingdom,  to  build,  and  to 
plant  it ; 

10  If  it  do  evil  in  my  sight,  that  it  obey  not  my 
vu^ice,  then  I  will  repent  of  the  ™  good  wherewith  I 
said  I  would  benefit  them. 

1 1  Now,  therefore,  go  to,  speak  to  the  men  of  Ju- 
dah, and  to  the  inhabitants  of  Jerusalem,  saying. 
Thus  saith  the  Lord,  Behold, "  I  frame  evil  against 
you,  and  devise  a  device  against  you : "  return  ye  now 
every  one  from  his  evil  way,  and  make  your  ways 
and  your  doings  good. 

12  And  they  said.  There  is  •'  no  hope  ;  but  1  we 
w  ill  walk  after  our  own  devices,  and  we  will  every 
one  do  the  imagination  of  his  evil  heart.

among  the  heathen,  who  hath  iieard  such  things,'';;

Behold,  I  will  bring  upon  this  city,  and  upon  all  ''her

Pasliur,  smiting  Jcremiiili,  receivetli  a  new  name,  and  a  fear- 
ful doon). 
NOW  °  Pashur,  the  son  of  "  Immcr  the  priest, 
who  was  also  "  chief  governor  in  the  house  | 
of  the  Lord,  heard  that  Jeremiah  prophesied  these  I 
things.  J 

2  Then  Pashur "  smote  Jeremiah  the  prophet,  and  J 
put  hun  in  "  the  stocks  that  iver:  in  the  high  gate  off 
Benjamin,  which  was  by  the  house  of  the  Lord.     | 

3  And  it  came  to  pass  on  the  morrow,  that  Pashur  J 
brought  forth  Jeremiah  out  of  the  stocks.  Then  said , 
Jeremiah  unto  him.  The  Lord  hath  not  called  thy  \ 
name  Pashur,  but  ||  Magor-missabib. 

4  For  thus  saith  the  Lord,  Behold,  I  will  make 
thee  '  a  terror  to  thyself,  and  to  all  thy  friends  ;  and 
they  shall  fall  by  the  sword  of  their  enemies,  and 
« thine  eyes  shall  behold  it :  and  1  will  give  all  Judah 
into  the  hand  of  the  king  of  Babylon,  and  he  shall 
carry  them  captive  into  Babylon,  and  shall  slay  them 
with  the  sword. 

_  3  Moreover,  I  will  deliver  all  the '' strength  of  this 
city,  and  all  the  labours  thereof,  and  all  the  precious 
things  thereof,  and  all  the  'treasures  of  the  kings  of 
Judah  will  I  give  into  the  hand  of  their  enemies,  I 
which  shall  spoil  them,  and  take  them,  and  carry  \ 
them  to  Baby.lon.  | 

6  And  thou,  Pashur,  and  all  that  dwell  in  thy  house,  \ 
shall  go  into  captivity:  and  thou  shalt  come  to  Baby-  5 
Ion,  and  there  thou  shalt  die,  and  shalt  be  buvied 
there,  thou,  and  all  thy  friends,  to  whom  thou  bast

9  And  I  will  deliver  them  to  "  be  removed  into  all 
the  kingdoms  of  the  earth  for  their  hurt,  to  be  a  re- 
proach and  a  proverb,  a  taunt  and  a  curse,  in  all  pla- 
ces whither  I  shall  drive  them. 

10  And  P I  will  send  the  sword,  the  famine,  and 
the  pestilence,  among  them,  till  they  be  consumed 
from  off  the  land  that  I  gave  unto  them  and  to  their 
fathers. 

CHAPTER  XXV. 

Jeremiah  foretelleth  the  seventy  years*  captivity. 

THE  word  that  eame  to  Jeremiah  concerning  all 
the  people  of  Judah,  in  the  "fourth  year  of 
Jehoiakim  the  son  of  Josiah  king  of  Judah,  that  was 
the  first  year  of  Nebuchadrezzar  king  of  Babylon ; 

2  The  which  Jeremiah  the  prophet  spake  unto 
"all  the  people  of  Judah,  and  to  all  the  inhabitants 
of  Jerusalem,  saying, 

3  From  the  '  thirteenth  year  of  Josiah  the  son  of 
Amon  king  of  Judah,  even  unto  this  day,  (that  is  the 
three  and  twentieth  year,)  the  word  of  the  Lord  hath 
come  unto  me,  and  I  have  spoken  unto  you, ''  rising 
early  and  speaking  ;  but  ye  have  not  hearkened. 

4  And  the  Lord  hath  sent  unto  you  all  his  *  ser- . 
vantsthe  prophets,  rising  early  and  sending  them;  but  \ 
ye  have  'hot  hearkened,  nor  inclined  your  ear  to  hear.  I 

5  They  said,  ^  Turn  ye  again  now  every  one  from  i 


Take  the  ^'  wine-cup  of  this  fury  at  my  hand,  and 
cause  all  the  nations  to  whom  I  send  thee,  to  drink  it. 

16  And  they  shall  drink,  and  be  moved,  and  be 
^  mad,  because  of  the  sword  that  I  will  send  among 
them. 

17  Then  took  I  the  cup  at  the  Lord's  hand,  and 
^  made  aU  the  nations  to  drink,  unto  whom  the  Lord 
had  sent  me : 

18  To  wit,  '' Jerusalem,  and  the  cities  of  Judah, 
and  the  kings  thereof;  and  the  princes  thereof,  to 
make  them  a  desolation,  an  astonishment,  a  his-

1 1 1'^  word  that  came  to  Jeremiah  from  the  Lord, 
saying, 

'Jl  Thus  speaketh  the  Lord  Cod  of  Israel,  saying, 
"\\'rite  thee  all  the  words  that  1  have  sjjoken  unto 
thee  in  a  book. 

t3  For,  lo,  ''  tlic  days  come,  saith  the  Lord,  that  I 
will  '  bring  again  the  captivity  of  my  neople  Israel 
and  Judah,  saith  the  Lord  ;  and  I  W'ill  cause  them 
to  re  turn  to  the  land  that  I  gave  to  their  fathers,  and 
llu'v  shall  possess  it. 

4  And  these  are  the  words  that  the  Lord  spake 
concerning  Israel,  and  concerning  Judah. 

o  For  thus  saith  the  Lord,  We  nave  heard  a  voice 
of ''  trembling,  of  fear,  and  "  not  of  peace. 

6  Ask  ye  now,  and  sec  whether  a  man  doth  '  tra- 
vail with  child  ?  wherefore  do  1  see  every  man  with 
liis  hands  on  his  loins,  as  a  woman  in  travail,  and  all 
laces  are  turned  into  paleness? 

7  Alas  I  forthat  day  is  ^  great,  so  that ''  none  is  like 
it :  it  75  even  the  '  time  of  Jacob's  trouble  ;  but ''  he 
isliall  be  saved  out  of  it. 

8  For  it  shall  come  to  pass  in  that  day,  saith  the 
Lord  of  hosts, //a// 1  will  break  his  yoke  from  off  thy 
neck,  and  will  burst  thy  bonds,  and  strangers  shall 
'  no  more  serve  themselves  of  him : 

9  But  they  shall  servo  the  Lord  their  God,  and 
"^  David  their  kin^,  whom  I  will "  raise  up  unto  them. 

10  Therefore  fear  thou  not,  O  my  servant  Jacob, 
saith  the  Lord  ;  neither  be  dismayed,  O  Israel :  lor, 
lo,  I  will  "save  thee  from  afar,  and  thy  seed  from  the 
land  of  their  captivity;  and  Jacob  shall  return,  and 
shall  be  p  in  rest  and  be  quiet,  and  none  shall  make 
him  afraid. 

11  For  I  am  with  thee,  saith  the  Lord,  to  save 
thee :  though  I  make  a  full  end  of  all  nations  whither 
I  have  scattered  tlu'C,yet  will  I  not  make  "^  a  full  end

they  shall '  not  stumble  ;  for  I  am  a  tallier  to  Israel, 
ami  l'",j)hraiui  is  ray  first-horn. 

10  Hear  the  word  of  the;  Lonn,  Oye  nations,  and 
deelare  it  in  the  isles  afar  ofl',  and  .say,  He  that  .scat- 


tered Israel  will  "catlier  him,  and  keep  him,  as  a

1 1  For  the  Lord  hath  *  redeemed  Jacob,  and  ran- 
somed him  from  the  hand  of  him  that  was  >'  stron;i;er 
than  he. 

12  Therefore  they  shall  eome  and  sinfi  in  the 
'  heiftht  of  Zion,  and  shall  How  tofiether  to  the  "  {j;o()d- 


'  heisht  of  Zion,  and  shall  How  tofiether  to  the  "{j;o()d-        'M  JJnt  every  one  shall  ilii; "  I'or  his  own  initiuily  :

aiul  their  sonis  shall  be  as  a  watereil  garden  ;  and!     31  Behold,  the  days  come,saith  tl.i!  Loan,  that  I 


they  shall  not  sorrow  anv  more  at  all 

l3  Then  shall  the  "virgin  rejoice  in  the  dance,  both 
5oung  men  and  old  together :  for  1  will  turn  their 
mourning  into  joy,  and  will  comfort  them,  and  make 
them  rejoice  from  their  ''  sorrow. 

1  i  And  I  will  "  satiate  the  soul  of  the  priests  with 
fatness,  and  niy  people  shall  be  satisfied  with  my 
goodness,  saith  the  Loro. 

15  Thus  saith  the  Loun,  A  voice  was  heard  in 
'  Ramah,  lamentation,  and  bitter  wce|)ing  ;  Rachel 
weeping  for  her  children,  refused  to  be  comforted 
for  her  children,  *  because  they  were  not. 

1 6  Thus  saith  the  Lo  rd,  •■  Refrain  thy  voice  from 
weening,  and  thine  eyes  from  tears  :  for  thy  work 
shall  be  'rewarded,  saith  the  Louu  ;  and  they  shall 
''  come  again  from  the  land  of  the  enemy. 

1 7  And  there  is '  hope  in  thine  end,  saith  the  TjORD, 
that  thi/  ""children  shall  come  again  to  their  own 
border. 

18  1  have  surely  heard  "  Ephraim  bemoaning 
himself  </jKs;  Thou  hast  "chastised  rne,  and  I  was 
chastised,  as  a  bullock  unaccustomed  to  the  yoke  : 
turn  thou  rae,  and  I  shall  be  turned ;  for  thou  art 
the  Loud  my  God. 

19  Surely  Rafter  that  I  was  turned,  I  repented; 
and  after  that  1  was  **  instructed,  I  smote  upon  my 
thigh:  I wasasl.amed,yea,cven confounded, because 
I  (lid  bear  the  'reproach  of  m..  youth. 

20  fs  Ephraim  my  'dear  son.''  is  he  a  pleasant 
child  ?  For  since  I  spake  against  him,  I  do  earnestly 
'remember  him  still;  therefore  roy  bowels  are  "trou- 
bled for  him  :  1  will  surely  *  have  mercy  upon  him, 
saith  the  Lord. 

21  Set  thee  up "  way-marks,  make  thee 'high  heaps: 
"  set  thv  heart  toward  tiie  highway,  even  the  way 
which  thou  wentest :  turn  again,  O  virgin  of  Israel, 
turn  again  to  these  thy  cities. 

22  How  long  wilt  thou  go  about,  O  thou  back-

Held  that  is  in  Anatlipth ;  for  thc  "  right  of  redemp- 
tion is  thine  to  buy  it. 

8  So  Hanameelj  mine  uncle's  son,  came  to  me  in 
ihe  court  of  the  prison,  according  to  thc  word  of  the 
Lord,  and  said  unto  me,  Buy  mv  field,  I  pray  thee, 
that  is  in  "Anathoth,  which  is  in  the  country  ot  Ben- 
jamin :  for  the  right  of  inlieritance  is  thine,  and  the 
redemptioa  is  thine :  buy  it  for  thyself.  °  Then  I 
knew  that  this  was  the  nord  ot  the  Lord. 

9  And  I  bought  the  field  of  Hanamcel,  mine  uncle's 
son,  that  ivas  in  Anathoth,  and  p  weighed  him  the 
money,  even  seventeen  shekels  of  silver. 

10  And  I  subsciibed  the  evidence,  and  "scaled 
it,  and  took  witnesses,  and  weighed  him  the  money 
in   he  balances. 

1 1  So  I  took  the  evidence  of  the  purchase,  both 
that  which  was  sealed  according  '  to  the  law  and 
custom,  and  that  which  was  open  : 

12  And  I  gave  the  evidence  of  the  purchase  unto 
'  Baruch  the  son  of  Neriah,  the  son  of  Maaseiah,  in 
the  sight  of  Hanamcel  mine  uncle's  son,  and  in  the 
i-vesencc  of  the  witnesses  that  subscribe*!  the  book 
of  the  purchase,  before  all  thc  Jews  that  sat  in  the 
court  of  the  prison. 

13  And  I  charged  Bavuch  before  them,  saying, 

14  Thus  saith  the  Lord  of  hosts,  the  God  of  Is- 
rael,  Take  these  evidences,  this  evidence  of  the  pur- 
chase, (both  which  is  sealed,)  and  this  evidence 
which  is  open,  and  put  them  in  an  earthen  vessel, 
that  they  may  continue  many  days:         ,     ^   ,    » 

15  For  thus  saith  thc  Lord  ot  hosts,  the  God  of 
Israel,  Housefj  and  fields,  and  vineyards,  shall  be 
*  possessed  again  in  this  land. 

16  Now  when  I  had  delivered  thc  evidence  of  the 
purchase  unto  Baruch  the  son  of  Neriah, "  I  prayed 

u  2  Sam.  7,  unto  the  Lord,  saying, 

Ktek.sc.7.  17  Ah,  Lord  God!  behold,  thou  hast  made  the 
""■  ' "  heaven  and  the  earth  by  thy  great  power  and  stretch-

and  recompcnsest  the  iniquity  of  the  fathers  into  the 
bosom  oftheirchildrenafter  them:  The*  Great,  The

for  the  children  of  Israel  have  only  provoked  me  to

of  mine  anger  and  of  my  fury,  from  the  day  that 
they  built  it,  even  unto  this  day,  that  I  should  remove

32  Because  of  all  the  evil  of  the  children  of  Israel, 
and  of  the  children  of  Judah,  which  they  have  done 
to  provoke  me  to  anger,  "they,  their  kings,  their  pnn-  -'^-^^ '

Judah,  and  the  inhabitants  of  Jerusalem.  U 

33  And  they  have  turned  unto  me  the  back,  and 
not  the  face :  though  I  taught  them,  "  rising  up  early 
and  teaching  them,  yet  they  have  not  hearkened  to 
receive  instruction. 

34  But  they  ^  set  their  abominations  in  the  house

unto  •'  Zedekiah  king  of  Judah  in  Jerusalem, 

7  When  the  king  of  Babylon's  army  toiight  against 
Jerusalem,  and  against  all  the  cities  of  Judah  that 
were  left,  against'  Lachish,  and  against  Azekah  : 
for  these  "  defenced  cities  remained  of  the  cities  of 
Judah.  ,         .  ,  - 

8  This  is  the  word  that  came  unto  Jeremiah  from 
the  Lord,  after  that  the  king  Zedekiah  had  t  made 
a  covenant  whh  all  the  people  which  xcere  at  Jerusa- 
lem, to  proclaim  '  liberty  unto  them  ; 

9  That  every  man  should  let  his  man-servant,  and 
every  man  his  maid-servant,  being  a  Hebrew  or  a 
Hebrcwess,go  free;  that  none  "should  serve  himself 
of  them,  to  wit,  of  a  Jew  "  his  brother. 

10  Now,  when  all  the  princes,  and  all  the  people 
which  had  entered  into  the  covenant,  heard  that  every 
one  should  let  his  man-servant,  and  every  one  his 
maid-servant,  go  free,  that  none  should  serve  them- 
selves of  them  any  more  ;  then  they  obey. J,  and  let 
them  go. 

11  But  °  afterwards  they  turned,  and  caused  the 
servants,  and  the  handmaids,  whom  they  had  let  go 
free,  to  return,  and  p  brought  them  into  subjection  for 
servants  and  for  handmaids. 

12  Therefore  the  word  of  the  Lord  came  to  Jere- 
miah from  the  Lord,  saying, 

1.3  Thus  saith  the  Lord,  the  God  of  Israel,  I  made 
acovenant  with  your  fathers  in  the  day  that  I  brought 
,.,  ^, ,  them  forth  out  ">  of  the  land  of  Egypt,  out  of  the 
'  '  house  of  bond-men,  saying, 

14  'At  the  end  of  seven  years,  let  ye  go  every  man

Jehudi  read  it  in  the  ears  of  the  king,  and  in  the  ears

30  Therefore  thus  saith  the  Lord  of  Jehoiakim 
king  of  Judah,  He  shall  have  '  none  to  sit  upon  the 
tlirone  of  David  ;  and  his  dead  bodj'  shall  bo  cast  out

(hem,  and  upon  the  inhabitants  of  Jerusalem,  and 
upon  the  men  of  Judah,  all  the  evil  that  I  have  pro- 
nounced against  them  :  but  they  hearkened  not. 

32  Then  took  Jeremiah  another  roll,  and  gave  it 
to  Baruch  the  scribe,  the  son  of  Neriah ;  who  wrote 
therein,  from  the  "  mouth  of  Jeremiah,  all  the  words 
of  the  book  wiiich  Jehoiakim  king  of  Judah  had 
burnt  in  the  (ire  :  and  there  were  adcfed  besides  unto 
them  many  like  words. 

CHAPTER  XXXVII. 

1  Jercmiali  prophesieth  the  Chaldeans'  cerfain  return  and  vic- 
tory....11  He  is  smitten  and  put  in  prison. 
AND  king  Zedekiah,  the  son  of  Josiah   reigned 
instead  of"  Coniali  the  son  of  Jehoial     ■,  wnom 
Nebuchadrezzar  king  of  Babylon  made  king  in  the 
land  of  Judah. 

2  But  neither  he,  ^  nor  his  servants,  nor  the  people 
of  the  land,  did  hearken  unto  the  words  of  the  Lord, 
which  he  spake  by  the  jirophet  Jeremiah. 

3  And  Zedekiah  the  king  sent  Jehiical  the  son  of 
Shelemiah,  and  Zephaniahthe  son  of  Maaseiah  the 
priest,  to  the  prophet  Jeremiah,  saying, "  Pray  now 
unto  the  Lord  our  God  for  us. 

4  Now  Jeremiah  came  in  and  went  out  among 
the  i)cople ;  for  they  had  not  put  him  into  prison. 

5  Then  '^  Pharaoh's  army  was  come  forth  out  of 
Egypt :  and  when  the  Chaldeans  that  besieged  Je- 
rusalem heard  tidings  of  them,  they  *  departed  from 
Jerusalem. 

G  Then  came  the  word  of  the  Lord  unto  the  pro- 
phet Jeremiah,  saying, 

7  Thus  saich  the  Lord,  the  God  of  Israel,  Thus 
shall  ye  say  to  the  king  of  Judah,  that '  sent  you 
unto  me  to  inquire  of  me ;  Behold,  Pharaoh's  army, 
which  is  come  forth  to  help  you,  shall  *  return  to 
Egypt  into  their  own  land. 

8  And  the  Chaldeans  shall  come  again,  and  fight 
against  this  city,  and  ''  take  it,  and  burn  it  with  fire. 

9  Thus  saith  the  Lord,  '  Deceive  not  your.selves, 
saying,  The  Chaldeans  shall  surely  depart  from  us  : 
for  the^  shall  not  depart. 

10  For  though  ye  had  smitten  the  whole  army

Irijah,  the  son  of  Shelemiah,  the  son  of  Hananiah  ; 
and  he  took  Jeremiah  the  prophet,  saying.  Thou 
"fallost  away  to  the  Chaldeans. 

14Thensaid  Jeremiah, 7/ isf  false;  Ifallnotaway  },;/.';',;;,„,, 
to  the  Chaldeans.    But  he  hearkened  not  to  him :  so  cr-K 
Irijah  took  Jeremiah,  and  brought  him  to  the  princes. 

15  ^Vherefore  the  princes  °  were  wroth  with  Jer- 
emiah, and  ^  smote  him,  and  put  him  in  prison  in 
the  house  of  ■>  Jonathan  the  scribe ;  for  they  had 
made  that  the  prison. 

16  When  Jeremiah  was  entered  into  the  'dun- 
geon, and  into  the  cabins,  and  Jeremiah  had  remain- 
ed there  many  davs  ; 

17  Then  Zedekiah  the  king  sent,  and  '  took  him 
out ;  and  the  king  asked  him  secretly  in  the  house 
and  said.  Is  there  '  any  word  from  the  Lord  .''  And  tivi»rkG, 
Jeremiah  said,  There  is  :  for,  said  he,  thou  shalt  be  ^' 
"  delivered  into  the  hand  of  the  king  of  Babylon. 

18  Moreover,  Jeremiah  said  unto  king  Zedekiah, 
"What  have  I  offended  against  thee,  or  against  thy 
servants,  or  against  this  people,  that  ye  have  put  me 
in  prison .'' 

19  ^  Where  are  now  your  prophets  which  prophe- 
sied unto  you,  saying.  The  king  of  Babylon  shall 
not  come  against  you,  nor  against  this  land  ? 

20  Therefore  hear  now,  1  pray  thee,0  my  lord  the 
king :  let  my  supplication,  I  pray  thee,  be  accepted 
before  thee  ;  that  thou  cause  me  not  to  return  to  the 

5  house  of  Jonathan  the  scribe,  *  lest  I  die  there.  l^"^hi- 

I     21  Then  Zedekiah  the  king  commanded  that  they  iiJbiiz,  li. 

I  should  'commit  Jeremiah  into  the  court  of  the  prison,  amo,  12. 

I  and  that  they  should  give  him  daily  ''a  piece  of  bread  ,,p,.33,,,^ 
out  of  the  bakers'  street,  until  all  the  bread  in  the  ^^yi^ 
city  were  spent.    Thus  Jeremiah  remained  in  the 
court  of  the  prison. 

CHAPTER  XXXVIII. 

1  Jeremiah,  by  a  false  suggestion,  is  put  into  the  dungeon  of 
Malchiah....7  Ebed-raeiech  getteth  liira  some  enlargement. 

THEN  Shephatiah  the  son  of  Mattan,  and  Ged- 
aliah  the  son  of  Pashur,  and  Jucal  the  son  of 
Shelemiah,  and  Pashur  the  son  of  Malchiah,  heard 
"the  words  that  Jeremiah  hadsitoken  ''unto  all  the  jMicni.2, 
people,  saying,  f^^'J'  ^' «' 

2  Thus  saith  the  Lord,  °  He  that  remaineth  in    '  \ 
this  city  shall  die  by  the  sword,  by  the  famuie,  and  acu  28,1i 
by  the  pestilence :  but  he  that  goeth  forth  to  the 
Chaldeans  shall  live ;  for  he  shall  have  ■*  his  life  for 
a  prey,  and  shall  live. 

3  Thus  saith  the  Lord,  This  citv  shall  surely  be 
'given  into  the  hand  of  the  king  of  Babylon's  army, 
which  shall  take  it. 

4  Therefore  the  '  princes  said  unto  the  king.  We  1'^";.' i.'a. 
beseech  thee,  let  this  man  be  «  put  to  death ;  for  thus 
he  ■'  weakeneth  the  hands  of  the  men  of  war  that  re

'  dungeon  of  Malchiah  the  son  of  Hammclech,  that 
was  in  the  court  of  the  prison  :  and  they  let  down 
Jeremiah  with  cords.  And  in  the  dunscon  there  ipas 
no  water,  but  mire:  so  Jeremiah  sunk  in  the  mire. 

7  Now  when  Ebed-mefcch  the  "  Ethiopian,  one  of 
the  eunuchs,  which  was  "  in  the  king's  house,  heai*d 
that  tliey  liad  put  Jeremiah  in  the  dunceon,  (the  king 
then  sitting  in  the  gate  of  Benjamin,) 

8  Ebed-melech  went  forth  out  of  the  king's  house, 
and  "  s])ake  to  tlie  king,  saying, 

9  My  lord  the  king,  ^  these  men  have  done  evil  in 
all  that  they  have  done  to  Jeremiah  the  prophet,whom 
they  have  cast  into  the  dungeon ;  and  he  is  like  t9  die 
for  hunger  in  the  place  where  he  is ;  for  there  is  no 
more  bread  in  the  city. 

10  Then  the  king  "^  commanded  Ebed-melech  the 
Ethiopian,  saying,  Take  from  hence  thirty  men  with 
thee,  and  take  un  Jeremiah  the  prophet  out  of  the 
dungeon,  before  he  die. 

1 1  So  Ebed-melech  took  the  men  with  him,  and 
went  into  the  house  of  the  king  under  the  treasury, 
and  took  thence  old  cast  clouts  and  old  rotten  rags,and 
let  them  down  by  cords  into  the  dungeon  to  Jeremiah. 

12  And  Ebed-melech  the  Ethioi)ian  said  unto  Jere- 
miah, Put  now  these  old  cast  clouts  and  "■  rotten  rags 
■  under  thine  arm-holes,  under  the  cords.  And  Jere- 
miah did  so. 

13  So  they  drew  up  Jeremiah  with  cords,  and 
took  him  up  out  of  the  dungeon :  and  Jeremiah 
remained  in  the  court  of  the  *  prison. 

14  Then  Zedekiah  the  king  sent,  and  "  took  Jere- 
miah the  prophet  unto  him  into  the  "third  entrv  that 
is  in  the  house  of  the  Lord  :  and  the  king  said  unto 
Jeremiah,  I  will  ask  thee  ^  a  thing ;  "  hide  nothing 
from  me. 

15  Then  Jeremiah  said  unto  Zedekiah,  If  Ideclare 
it  unto  thee,  wilt  thou  not  surely  '  put  mc  to  death  ? 
and  if  I  give  thee  counsel,  wilt  thou  ''  not  hearken 
unto  me  ? 

16  So  Zedekiah  the  king  sware  secretly  unto  Jere- 
miah, saving,  As  the  Lord  liveth,  that  made  us  this 
soul,  I  will  not  put  thee  to  death,  neither  will  I  give 
thee  into  the  hand  of  these  men  that  seek  thy  life. 

17  Then  said  Jeremiah  unto  Zedekiah,  Thus  saith 
the  Lord,  the  God  of  hosts,  the  God  of  Israel,  If  thou 
wilt  assuredly  "  go  forth  unto  the  king  of  Babylon's 
princes,  then  thy  soul  shall  live,  and  this  city  shall  not 
be  burnt  with  fire;  andtho  »  halt  live,  and  thy  house: 

1 8  But  if  thou  wilt  not  gi  lo  h  to  the  king  of  Baby- 
lon's princes,  then  shall  this  city  be  given  into  the 
hand  of  the  Chaldeans,  and  they  shall  burn  it  with 
iire,  and  thou  shall ''  not  escape  out  of  their  hand. 

19  And  Zedekiah  the  king  said  unto  Jeremiah,  "I 
am  afraid  of  the  Jews  that  are  fallen  to  the  Chaldeans, 
lest  theydeliver  me  into  their  hand,  and  they  mock  me. 

20  But  JeremJah  said,  They  shall  not  dleliver  thee. 
Obey,  I '  beseech  thee,  the  voice  of  the  Lord,  which 
I  speak  unto  thee  :  so  it  shall  bo  well  unto  thee,  and 
thy  soul  shall  live. 

21  But  if  thou  refuse  to  go  forth,  *this  is  the 
word  that  the  Lord  hath  shewed  me : 

22  And,  behold,  all  the  "  women  that  are  left  in 
the  king  of  Judah's  house  shall  be  brought  forth  to 
the  king  of  Babjjlon's  princo«  :  and  those  women 
shall  say,  Thy  friends  nave  set  thee  on,  and  have 
prevailed  agamst  thee :  thy  feet  are  sunk  in  the 
mire,  and  they  are  turned  away  back. 

23  So  they  shall  bring  out  all  thy  wives  and  thy

out  of  their  hand,  but  shalt  be  taken  by  the  hand  o{ 
the  king  of  Babylon  :  and  thou  shalt  cause  this  city 
to  be  burnt  with  fire. 

24  Then  said  Zedekiah  unto  Jerentiah,  Let  no  k'n'o' 
man  know  of  these  words,  and  thou  shalt  not  die. 

26  But  if "  the  princes  hear  that  I  have  talked 
with  thee,  and  they  come  unto  thee,  and  say  unto 
thee,  Declare  unto  us  now  what  thou  hast  said  unto 
the  king,  hide  it  not  from  ns,  and  we  will  not  put

28  So  Jeremiah  °  abode  in  the  court  of  the  prison  J^ije,  ir 
until  the  day  that  Jerusalem  was  taken:  and  he  was  ;jy'ia^-,^. 
there  when  Jerusalem  was  taken.  2rim!«,i- 

CHAPTER  XXXIX. 

1  Jerusalem  is  taken....?  Zedekiah  is  made  blind,  and  sent  to 
Babylon. ...9  The  people  carried  away  captive. 

IN  the  "  ninth  year  of  Zedekiah  king  of  Judah,  in 
the  tenth  month,  came  Nebuchadrezzar  king 
of  Babylon  and  all  his  army  against  Jerusalem,  and  cW62, 
they  besieged  it.  .       .  ^"'''•'•' 

2  And  in  the  eleventh  year  of  Zedekiah,  in  the 
^  fourth  month,  the  ninth  day  of  the  month,  the '  city 
was  broken  up. 

3  And  all  the  prhices  of  the  king  of  Babylon  came 
in,  and  sat  in  '^  the  middle  gate,  even  Nergal-sharezer, 
Samgar-nebo,  Sarsechim,  Rab-saris,  Nergal-sharB- 
zer,  jRab-mag,  with  all  the  residue  of  the  princes  of 
the  king  of  Babylon. 

4  And  it  came  to  pass,  that  when  Zedekiah  the  king 
of  Judah  saw  them,  and  all  the  men  of  war,  then 
*  they  fled,  and  went  forth  out  of  the  city  by  night,  ;; 
by  the  way  of  the  king's  garden, '  by  the  gate  betwixt 
tne  two  walls;  and  he  went  out  the  way  of  the  plain. 

5  But  the  Chaldeans'  army  pursued  after  them, 
and  overtook  Zedekiah  in  the  plains  of  Jericho :  and 
when  they  had  taken  hirn,  they  brought  him  up  to 
Nebuchadrezzar  king  of  Babyiqn  to  ^  Riblah,  in  the 
land  of  Hamath,  where  he ''gave  judgment  upon  him. 

6  Then  the  king  of  Babylon  slew  the  sons  of  Ze- 
I  dekiah  in  Riblah  before  his  eyes  :  also  the  king  of 

Babylon  slew  all  the  'nobles  of  Judah. 

7  Moreover,  he  put  out  Zedekiah's  eyes,  and 
bound  him  ''  with  chains,  to  carry  him  to  Babylon. 

8  And  the  Chaldeans  burnt  the  king's  house,  and 

the  '  houses  of  the  people,  with  fire,  and  brake  down  ^'-^'^ 
the  walls  of  Jerusalem.  Is,  a'"^' 

9  Then  Nebuzar-adan,  the  captain  of  the  guard,  J;*  *»'^ 
carried  away  captive  into  Babylon  the  remnant  of^  "'  ' 
the  people  that  remained  in  the  city,  and  those  that  „  2  Kingt 
fell  away,  that  "fell  to  him,  with  the  rest  of  the  J^'„',!;6 .. 
people  that  remained.  „  Num.2i;, 

10  But  Nebuzar-adan,  the  captain  of  the  guard,  Ji, ,  ^  g ' 
"  left  of  the  poor  of  the  Tieople,  which  had  nothing,  Kie^**.' 
in  the  land  of  Judah,  and  gave  them  vineyards  and  r«'v.  is,  id, 
fields  at  the  same  time.  *' 

1 1  11  Now  Nebuchadrezzar  king  of  Babylon  gave  ^'p.'i\ 
charge  "  concerning  Jeremiah  to  Nebuzar-adan  the  j^ ,  9.  * 

I  captain  of  the  guard,  saying, 
I      12  Take  him,  and  IckA  well  to  him,  and  ''do  hiia  no 
'  harm :  but  do  unto  him  even  as  he  shall  say  unto  thee.

this  thing  is  come  upon  you.

unto  thee  to  come  with  me  into  Babylon,  conne,  and

and  convenient  for  thee  to  go,  thither  go.

of  the  city,  that  Ishmael  the  son  of  Ncthaniah  J|  slew 
them,  and  cast  them  into  the  midst  of  the  pit,  he, 
and  the  men  that  were  with  him. 

8  But  ten  men  were  found  among  them  that  said 
unto  Ishmacl,  Slay  us  not ;  for  we  have  treasures  in  i 
the  field,  of  wheat,  and  of  barley,  and  of  oil,  and  of 
honey.     So  ho  forbare,  and  slew  them  not  among 
their  brethren. 

9  Now  the  pit  wherein  Ishmael  had  cast '  all  the 
dead  bodies  of  the  men,  whom  he  had  slain  f  because 
of  Gedaliah,  was  it  which  ""  Asa  the  king  had  made 
for  fear  of  Baasha  kin§  of  Israel ;  and  Ishmael  the 
son  of  Nethaniah  lilled  it  with  them  that  were  slain. 

10  Then  Ishmael  carried  away  captive  all  the 
residue  of  the  people  that  were  in  Mizpah,  even  the 
"  king's  daughters,  and  all  the  people  that  remained 
in  Mizpah,  whom  Nebuzar-adan  the  captain  of  the 
guard  had  committed  to  Gedaliah  the  sonof  Ahikam : 
and  Ishmael  the  sonof  Nethaniah  carried  them  away 
captive,  and  departed  to  go  over  to  the  "  Ammonites. 

11  But  wiien  Johanan  the  sonof  Kareah, and  all 
the  P  captains  of  the  forces  that  were  with  him, 
heard  ot  all  the  evil  that  Ishmael  the  son  of  Nctha- 
niah iiad  done, 

12  Then  they  took  all  the  men,  and  went  to  i  fight 
with  Ishmael  the  son  of  Nethaniah,  and  found  him 
by  the  'great  waters  that  are  in  Gibeon. 

13  Now  it  came  to  pass,  that  when  all  the  people 
which  ivere  with  Ishmael  saw  Johanan  the  son  of 
Kareah,  and  all  the  captains  of  the  forces  that  loere 
with  him,  then  they  were  '  glad. 

14  So  all  the  people  that  Islimaelhad  carried  away 
captive  from  Mizpah  cast  about,  and  returned,  and 
'  went  unto  Johanan  the  son  of  Kareah. 

13  But  Ishmael  the  son  of  Nethaniah  "escaped 
from  Johanan  with  eight  men,  and  went  to  the  Am- 
monites. 

16  Then  took  Johanan  the  son  of  Kareah,  and  all 
the  captains  of  the  forces  that  iccre  with  him,  all  the 
remnantof  the  people  whom  he  had  "recovered  from 
Ishmael  the  son  ot  Nethaniah,  from  Mizpah,  (after 
that  he  had  slain  Gedaliah  the  son  of  Ahikam,)  even 
t  mighty  men  of  war,  and  the  women,  and  the  chil-

12  And  I  will  shew  mercies  unto  you,  that "  he 
may  have  mercy  upon  you,  and  cause  you  to  return 
to  your  own  land. 

13  But  if  yc  say,  We  will  not  dwell  in  this  land, 
neither  "  obey  the  voice  of  the  Lord  your  God,

CHAPTER  XLIII. 

Jeremiah  proplipsietli  the  conquest  of  Egypt  by  the  Babylonians. 
4  ND  it  came  to  pass,  that  when  Jeremiah  had 
.l\.  made  an  end  of  speaking  unto  all  the  people 
all  the  words  of  the  Lord  their  God,  for  which  the 
Lord  their  God  had  sent  him  to  them,  even  all  these 

words,  ,.  TT    1    .  1 

2  Then  s[)ake  Azariah  the  son  of  Hoshaiah,  and 
Joiiaiiiin  the  son  of  Kareah,  and  all  the "  proid  men, 
saying  unto  Jeremiah,  Thou  speakest  "falsely  :  the 
f  iORU  our  God  hath  not  sent  thee  to  say.  Go  not  into 
Kgvpt  to  sojourn  there  : 

,4  But "  Baruch  the  son  of  Neriah  setteth  thee  on 
asaiust  us,  for  to  deliver  us  into  the  hand  of  the  Chal- 
deans, that  '^  they  might  put  ns  to  death,  and  carry 
us  away  captives  into  Babylon. 

I  So  Johanan  the  son  ot  Kareah,  and  all  the  cap- 
f  Mill.  'J,  tains  of  the  forces,  and  all  the  people,  *  obeyed  not  the 
ILp.  41, «.  voice  of  the  Lord,  to  '  dwell  in  the  land  of  Judah  ; 

5  But  ^Johanan  the  son  of  Kareah,  and  all  the 
captainsof  the  forces,  took  all  the  remnant  of  Judah, 
that  were  returned  from  all  nations  whither  they 
had  been  driven,  to  dwell  in  the  land  of  Judah; 

(j  Even  men,  and  women,  and  children,  and  the 
"  king's  daughters,  and  every  person  that  Nebuzar- 
adan  the  captain  of  the  guard  had  left  with  Gedaliah 
the  son  of  Ahikam,  the  son  of  Shaphan,  and  'Jere- 
miah the  prophet,  and  Baruch  the  son  of  Neriah. 

7  So  they  came  into  the  land  of  Egypt :  for  they 
obeyed  not  the  voice  of  the  Lord.  Thus  came  they 
even  to  ''  Tahpanhes. 

8  '  'I'hen  came  the  word  of  the  Lord  unto  Jere 
miah  in  Tahpanhes,  saying, 

9  Take  ^reat  stones  in  thy  hand,  and  hide  them 
in  the  clay  m  the  brick-kiln,  which  is  '"  at  the  entry 
of  Pharaoh's  house  in  Tahpanhes,  in  the  sight  of  the 
men  of  Judah; 

10  And  say  unto  them.  Thus  saith  the  Lord  of 
hosts,  the  God  of  Israel,  Behold,  I  will  send  and  take 

r".l"M'j'  Nebuchadrezzar  the  king  of  "Babylon  my  servant, 

"''  '  '  and  will  "set  his  throne  upon  these  stones  that  I  have 

hid ;  and  he  shall  spread  his  royal  pavilion  over  them. 

I I  And  when  he  cometh,  he  shall  ^  smite  the  land 
of  Egypt,  and  deliver  '^  such  as  are  for  death,  to  death ; 
and  such  as  are  for  captivity,  to  captivity  ;  and  such 
as  arc  for  the  sword,  to  the  sword. 

12  And  I  will  kindle  a  fire  in  the  '  houses  of  the

to  turn  from  their  wickedness,  to  burn  no  incense

4  Thus  the  slain  shall  fall  in  the  land  of  the  Chal-

for  this  is  the  '  time  of  the  Lords 
will  render  unto  her  a  reconii)ense. 

7  Babylon  hath  been  "  a  golden  cui)  in  the  Lord's 
hand,  that '  made  all  the  earth  drunken :  the  nations 
have  drunken  of  her  wine ;  therefcre  the  nations  arc 
mad. 

o  Babylon  is  ""  siuUlenly  fallen  and  destroyed : 
"  howl  tor  her ;  take  balm  for  her  pahi,  if  so  be  she 
may  be  healed. 

9  "We  would  have  healed  Babylon,  but  she  ^is 
not  healed :  forsake  her,  and  ^  let  us  go  every  one 
into  his  own  country;  for  her  judgment  reaciicth 
unto  heaven,  and  is  lifted  up  even  to  the  skies. 

10  The  Lord  hath  '  brought  forth  our  righteous- 
ness:  come,  and  let  us  ^  declare  in  Zion  the  work  of 
the  Lord  our  God. 

1 1  Make  bright  the  arrows,  gather  the  shields  : 
the  Lord  hath  '  raised  iipthe  spirit  of  the  kings  of  i 
the  Modes :  for  his  device  is  against  Babylon,  to  \ 
destroy  it ;  because  it  is  the  "  venge:uice  of  the  Lord, 
the  vengeance  of  his  temi)le. 

12  Set  up  the  "  standard  upon  the  walls  of  Baby- 
lon, make  the  watch  strong ;  set  up  the  watchmen, 
IH-epare  the  ambushes:  for  the  Lord  hath  both

13  O  thou  that  dwellest  upon  many  >' waters,

14  The  Lord  of  hosts  hath  sworn  by  himself,  sa^/- 
ins,  Surely  I  will  fill  thee  with  men  as  whh  » cater- 
pillars ;  and  they  shall  ^  lift  up  a  shout  against  thee. 

15  He  hath  '■  made  the  earth  by  his  power,  he 
hath  established  the  world  l)y  Jiis  wisdom,  and  hath 
stretched  out  the  heaven  by  his  understanding.

41  How  is  Sheshach  taken !  and  how  is  the "  praise 
of  the  whole  earth  surprised !  how  is  Babylon  become 
an  astonishment  among  the  nations ! 

42  The  "  sea  is  come  up  upon  Babylon  :  she  is 
covered  with  the  multitude  of  the  waves  thereot. 

'43  Her  cities  are  a  desolation,  a  dry  land,  aiul  a 
wilderness,  a  land  wherein  no  man  >'  dwelleth,  neither 
doth  any  son  of  man  pass  thereby.  ,  t     -n 

44  And  I  will  r)unish  Bel  in  Babylon  ;  and  I  will 
bring  forth  out  of  his  mouth  that  which  he  hath '  swal- 
lowed up :  and  the  nations  shall  not  flow  together  any 
more  unto  him  ;  yea,  the  wall  of  Babylon  sliall  fall. 


60  So  Jeremiah  wrote  >  in  a  boo.H.  all  the  evil  that 
should  come  upon  Babylon,  even  all  these  words  that 
are  vvrhten  against  Babylon. 

61  And  Jeremiah  said  to  Seraiah,  When  thou 
comcst  to  Babylon,  and  slialt  see,  and  slialt  read  all 
these  words: 

62  Then  shalt  thou  sa);,  O  Lord,  thou  hast  spoken 
against  this  place,  to  cut  it  off,  that  none  shall  rcumin 
in  it,  ^  neither  man  nor  boast,  but  that  it  shall  be 
"  desolate  for  ever. 

63  And  it  shall  be,  when  thou  hast  made  an  end 
of  reading  this  book,  that  thou  shalt  bind  a  stone  to 
it,  and  cast  it  into  the  midst  of  Euphrates  : 

64  And  thou  shalt  say.  Thus  shall  Babylon  "sink,

5  Her  adversaries  are  the  'chief,  her  enemies  pros-

CHAPTER  I. 

1  The  time  of  Ezekiel's  prophecy  at  Chebar;  4  his  vision. 

NOW  it  came  to  pass  in  tlie  thirtieth  year,  in  the 
lourth  month,  ni  tlie  fifth  day  of  the  month,  as 
I  was  iunoiis  tJie  captives  by  the  river  of  Chebar, 
that  the  ^  heavens  were  opened,  and  I  saw  ''  visions 
of  God. 

2  In  the  fifth  day  of  the  month,  (which  was  the 
fifth  year  of  king  Jehoiachin's  captivity,) 

3  The  word  of  the  Lord  "came  expressly  unto 
Ezekiel  the  priest,  the  son  of  Buzi,  in  the  land  of 
the  '  Chaldeans,  by  the  river  Chftbar ;  and  the "  hand 
of  the  Loud  was  there  upon  him. 

4  And  I  '  looked,  and,  behold, « a  whirlwind  came 
out  of  "  the  north,  a  great  cloud,  and  a  fire  infolding 
itst'lf,  and  a  '  brightness  was  about  it,  and  out  ot'  the 
midst  thereof,  as  the  colour  of  amber,  out  of  the 
midst  of  the  fire : 

5  Also  out  of  the  ''  midst  thereof  c«»ie  the  likeness 
of  '  fourliving  creatures.  And  this io«s"their  appear- 
ance ;  they  had  the  Irkeness  of  a  man. 

6  And  every  one  had  four  faces, and  everyone  had 
four  °'  wings. 

7  And  their  feet ti-ere  "  straight  feet;  and  the  sole 
of  their  feet  was  like  the  sole  of  a  "  calfs  foot ;  and 
they  sparkled  like  the  colour  of  ^  burnished  brass. 

8  And  they  had  the  "^  hands  of  a  man  '  undei-  their 
wings,  on  their  four  sides  ;  and  they  four  had  their 
faces  and  their  wings. 

9  Their  wings  were  'joined  one  to  another  ;  they 
'  turned  not  when  they  went ;  they  went  every  one 
"  straight  forward. 

10  As  for  tlie  likeness  of  their  faces,  they  four  had 
the  face  of  "^  h  man,  and  the  face  of  *'  a  lion  on  the 
light  side ;  and  they  four  had  the  face  of  an  *  ox  on  the 
left  side  ;  they  four  also  had  the  face  of  "an  eagle. 

1 1  Thus  were  their  faces  :  and  their  wings  were 
stretched  upward;  two  7vings  of  every  one  were 
joined  one  to  another,  and  two  covered  their  bodies. 

12  And  they  vvent  every  one  straight  forward  : 
whither  the  ''  spirit  was  to  go,  they  went ;  and  they 
turned  not  when  they  went. 

13  As  for  the  likeness  of  the  livingcreaturss,  their 
appearance  leas  like  '  l)urning  coals  of  fire,  and  like 
the  appearance  of  lamps :  '  it  went  up  and  down 
among  the  living  creatures  ;  and  the  fire  was  bright, 
and  out  of  the  fire  went  forth  lightning. 

14  And  the  living  creatures  ''ran  and  "^ returned  as 
tlie  appearance  of  a  flash  of  lightning. 

1.5  Now,  as  I  beheld  the  living  creatures,  behofd, 
«=  one  wheel  upon  the  ''  earth  by  the  living  creatures, 
with  his  four  faces. 

16  The  appearance  '  of  the  wheels  and  their  work 
was  like  unto  the  colour  of  a  beryl ;  and  they  four 
iiad  one  likeness;  and  thf»ir  nppoarance  and  their  work 
was  as  it  were  a  wheel  in  the  middle  of  a  wheel. 

17  When  they  vvcuit,  they  went  upon  their  four

1 8  As  for  their  rings,  they  were  so  ^  high,  that  they 
were  dreadful ;  and  their  rings  tf  ere  '  full  of  eyes 
round  about  them  four. 

19  And  when  the  livingcreatures  went,  the  wheels 
went  "  by  them ;  and  when  the  living  creatures  were 
lifted  up  from  the  earth,  the  "  wheels  were  lifted  up. 

20  Whithersoever  the  spirit  was  to  go,  thev  went, 
thither  was  their  spirit  to  go ;  and  the  wheels  were 
lifted  up  over  against  them:  forthespirit  of  the  living 
creature  °  ivas  in  the  wheels. 

21  When  those  went,  these  went;  and  when  those 
stood,  these  stood ;  and  when  those  were  lifted  up  from 
the  earth,the  wheels  were  lifted  up  over  against  them: 
for  >"  the  spirit  of  the  living  creature  tuftsin  the  wheels. 

22  And  the  likeness  of  the  "^  firmament  upon  the 
heads  of  the  living  creature  loas  as  the  colour  of 
'  the  terrible  crystal,  stretched  fortJi  over  their  heads 
above. 

23  And  under  the  firmariient  ivere  their  wings 
straight,  the  one  toward  the  other :  every  one  had 
two  which  '  covered  on  this  side,  and  every  one  had 
two,  which  covered  on  that  side,  their  bodies. 

24.  And  when  they  went,  I  heard  the  noise  of  their 
wings,  like  the  noise  of '  grc^at  waters,  as  the  voice 
of  "the  Almighty,  the  voice  ol' speech,  as  the  noise  of 
a  host :  when  they  stood,  they  let  down  their  wings. 

25  And  there  was  "  a  voice  from  the  firmament  that 
was  over  their  heads,  when  they  >'  stood,  and  had  let 
down  their  wings. 

26  And  above  the  firmament  that  was  over  their 
heads  w'as  the  likeness  of  a  '  throne,  as  the  appear- 
ance of  a  sapphire-stone  :  and  upon  the  likeness  of 
the  throne  was  the  likeness  as  the  appearance  of  a 
man  above  "uijon  it. 

27  And  I  savvastliecolourofamber,astheappear- 
ance  of  ''fire  round  about  within  it;  from  the  appear- 
ance of  his  loins  even  upward,  and  from  the  appear- 
ance of  his  loins  even  downward,  I  saw  as  it  were 
the  appearance  of  fire,  and  it  had  "  brightness  round 
about. 

28  As  the  appearance  of  the  "^  bow  that  is  in  the 
cloud  in  the  day  of  *  rain,  so  was  the  appearance  of 
the  brightness  round  about.  This  teas  the  appear- 
ance of  the  likeness  of  the  glory  of  the  Lord.  And 
when  I  saw  it,  '  I  fell  upon  my  face,  and  I  ^  heard  a 
voice  of  one  that  spake.

inner  f;ate  that  looketh  toward  the  north,  wiiere  in/.v 
tlie  seat  of  the  ''  image  of  jealousy,  which  '  provoketh 
to  jealousy. 

4  And,"  beholil,  the  ^  «;Iory  of  the  God  of  Israel  was 
there,  according  to  the  vision  that  I  'saw  in  the  plain. 

5  'i'hcn  said  lie  unto  me.  Son  of  man,  ""lift  up  thine 
eyes  now  the  way  toward  the  north.  So  1  lilted  ui) 
mine  eyes  the  way  toward  the  north,  and  behold, 
northward  at  I  lit:  gate  of  the  altar,  this  image  of 
jealousy  in  the  eiitiy. 

(J  lie  said  furthermore  unto  me.  Son  of  man,  seest 
tliou  what  they  do  r  crcn  the  great  abominations  that 
tlie  house  of  Israel  couiiuitteth  liere,tliat  "1  should  go 
far  off  from  my  sancliiaiy  .''  Rut  turn  thee  yet  again, 
and  thou  siiall  see  greater  abominations. 

7  .\nd  he  brought  me  to  the  "  door  of  the  court; 
an<l  when  1  looked,  behold,  ''  a  hole  in  the  wall. 

}>  Then  said  he  unto  me.  Son  of  man,  i  dig  now 
in  the  wall :  and  when  I  had  digged  in  the  wall, 
behold,  a  door. 

9  And  he  said  unto  me.  Go  in,  and  behold  the 
w  icked  abominations  that  they  do  here. 

10  So  I  went  in  and  saw;  and,  behold,  every  form 
of  creeping  things,  and  '  abominable  beasts,  and  all 
the  fidols  of  the  house  of  Israel,  pourtrayed  ui)on  th( 
wall  round  about. 

1 1  And  there  stood  before  them  seventy  men  of 
the  ancients  of  the  house  of  Israel,  and  in  the  midst 
of  them  stood  .Jaazaniah  tin?  son  '  of  Shaphan,  with 
every  man  his  censer  in  his  hand  ;  and  a  thick  cloud 
of  '  incense  went  up. 

12  Then  said  he  unto  me.  Son  of  man,  hast  thou 
seen  what  the  ancients  of  the  house  of  Israel  do  in  the 
"  dark,  every  man  in  the  chambers  of  his  imagery  ? 
for  they  say.  The  Lord  "  seeth  us  not ;  the  Lord 
hath  ^  forsaken  the  earth. 

13  He  said  also  unto  me.  Turn  thee  yet  again,  a/it/ 
thou  shalt  ^  see  greater  abominations  that  they  do. 

14  Then  he  brought  me  to  the  door  of  the  gate  of 
the  Lord's  house  which  ivas  toward  the  north ;  and, 
behold,  there  sat "  women  weeping  for  "^  Tammuz. 

15  Then  said  he  unto  me.  Hast  thou  seen  this,  O . 
son  of  man  ?  Turn  thee  yet  again,  and  thou  shalt  see  ji 
greater  abominations  than  these. 

16  And  he  brought  mo  into  the  inner  court  of  the

and  stood  beside  the  brazen  altar. 

3  And  the  "glory  of  the  God  of  Israel  was  gone  up 
from  the  cherub,  whereupon  he  was,  lothe  'threshold 
of  the  house  :  and  he  called  to  the  man  clothed  with 
linen,  which  had  the  writer's  ink-horn  by  his  side  ; 

4  And  the  Lord  said  unto  him.  Go  through  the  '^ "••''* 
midst  of  the  city,  through  the  midst  of  .Jerusalem, 
and  set ''  a  mark  upon  tlie  foreheads  of  the  men  that 
'sigh,  and  that  cry,  for  all  the  abominations  that  be 
done  in  the  midst  thereof. 

5  And  to  the  others  he  said  in  my  hearing.  Go  ye 
™  after  him  through  the  city,  and  smite  ;  let  not  your 

ji  eye  spare,  neither  have  ye  pity  :

which  were  before  the  house.  i'iii.i:,  n 

7  And  he  said  unto  them,  "i  Defile  the  house,  and  'i^^^^'"^' 
J  fill  the  courts  with  the  slain  ;  go  ye  forth.  And  they  ■■i>:'^r.j,: 
;  went  forth  and  slew  in  the  city.  L.ni.s,  ? 

8  And  it  came  to  pass  while  they  were  slaying  them,  ,  n,„„  , , 
and  1  was  left,  that  '  I  fell  u|)on  my  face,  and  cried,  jofi,.  7,, 
and  said,  'Ah  Lord  Goo  !  wilt  thou  destroy  all  the 
'  residue  of  Israel  in  thy  pouring  out  of  thy  fury  u|)on 
Jerusalem  ? 

9  Then  said  he  unto  me.  The  iniquity  of  the  hou.se 
of  Israel  and  Judah  is  "  exceeding  great,  and  the  land 
is  full  of  "  blood,  and  the  city  full  of  p^;rversencss  ;

the  Lord  ^  seeth  not. 

10  And  as  for  me  also,  mine  eye  shall  not  spare, 
neither  will  I  have  pity ;  but  I  will  *  recompense 
their  way  upon  their  head.

if  the  sword  come  and  take  any  person  from  among  \  the  land  of  Israel  speak,  saying,

hearthe  word 'at  my  mouth,  and  warn  them  from  me.  5  toward   your  idols,  and  shed  blood:  and  shall  ye"'"' 

8  When  I  say  unto  the  wicked,  O  wicked  man,  <  possess  the  land  r 
thou  shalt  surely  die  ;  if  thou  dost  not  speak  to  warn  <     26  "  Ye  stand  upon  your  sword,  ye  w  ork  aboini- 
the  wicked  from  his  way,  that  wicked  man  shall  die  f  nation,  and  ye  deiile  every  one  his  neighbour's  wife: 
in  his  iniquity;  but  his  blood  will  i  require  atthy  hand.  5  and  shall  ye  possess  the  laud  ?  ^^

CHAPTER  IV. 

Daniel  heareth  Nebuchadnezzar's  dream,  and  interpretetli  it. 

NEBUCH  ADNEZZAR  the  king,  *  unto  all  peo- 
ple, nations,  and  languages,  that  dwell  in  all 
the  earth ; "  Peace  be  multiplied  unto  you. 

2  "  I  thought  it  good  to  shew  "^  the  signs  and  won- 
ders that  the  high  God  hath  wrought « toward  me. 

3  How  great  are  his  signs !  and  '  how  mighty  are 
his  wonders !  his  kingdom  is  an  everlasting  kingdom, 
and  his  dominion  is  « from  generation  to  generation. 

4  I  Nebuchadnezzar  was  "  at  rest  in  my  house, 
and  '  flourishing  in  my  palace  : 

5  1  saw  a  dream  which  made  me  atraid,  and  the 
thoughts  upon  my  bed  and  the  visions  of  my  head 
''troubled  me.  . 

6  Therefore  made  I '  a  decree  to  bring  in  all  the  wise 
men  of  Babylon  before  me,  that  ""they  might  make 
known  unto  me  the  interpretation  of  the  dream. 

7  Then  came  in  the  magicians,  the  astrologers, 
the  Chaldeans,  and  the  soothsayers :  and  I  told  the 
dream  before  them  ;  but  they  did  ;■  not  make  known 
unto  ine  the  interpretation  thereof. 

8  But "  at  the  last  Daniel  came  m  before  me, 
(whose  name  ivas  Beltcshazzar,  according  to  the 


name  of  my  god,  and  in  whom  is  the"  spirit  of  the 
holy  gods,)  and  before  him  I  told  the  dream,  saymg, 

9  O  Beltcshazzar,  master  of  the  magicians,  because 
,V'-  I  know  that  the  spirit  of  the  holy  gods  is '  in  thee,  and 
'  ■    no  secret  troubleth  thee,  tell  me  the  visions  of  my 

dream  that  1  have  seen,  and  the  interpretation  thereof. 

10  Thus  ivere  the  visions  of  my  head  in  my  bed  : 
I  saw,  and,  behold, '  a  tree  in  the  midst  of  the  earth, 
and  the  height  thereof  was  '  great.  ,    ,   •  ,    I 

11  The  tree  grew,  and  was  strong,  and  the  height  i 
thereof  reached  unto  heaven,  and  the  sight  thereof  I 
to  the  end  of  all  tlie  earth  :  ,        rl 

12  The  leaves  thereof  uwefair.and  the  fruit  thereof  j 
much,  and  in  it  ivas  meat  for  all :  the  "  beasts  of  the  | 
field  had  shadow  under  it,  and  the  fowlsof  the  heaven  I 
dwelt  in  the  boughs  thereof,  and  all  flesh  was  fed  of  it.  | 

13  i  saw  in  the  visions  of  my  head  upon  my  bed,  | 
0,1,9,14.  and,  behold,  ^  a  watcher  and  '  a  holy  one  came  down  | 

from  heaven;  ' 

«R.'».i8,       ^4  ijy  f,Y\c(\  "aloud,  and  said  thus,  "Hew  down

13  Nevertheless, ''  leave  the  stumj)  of  his  roots  in

tender  grass  of  the  field  ;  and  let  it  be  wet  with  the

\  zar,)  was  ^  astonished  for  one  hour,  and  his  thoughts  ^^^^^  ^ 
1  troubled  him.  The  king  si)ake  and  said,  Belteshaz-  n.     ' 
zar,  let  not  the  dream,  or  the  interpretation  thereof,   °'" "'*' 
trouble  thee.     Beltesiiazzar  answered  and  said.  My  q  J".  4,19 
lord,  the  dream  be  to  them  that  'hate  thee,  and  the  riTiin.?, 
interpretation  thereof  to  thine  enemies. 

20  The  'tree  that  thou  sawest,  which  grew,  and  """••" 
was  strong,  whose  height  reached  unto  the  heaven, 
and  the  sight  thereof  to  all  the  earth  ;  tEiek,j? 

21  Whose  '  leaves  ivere  fair,  and  the  fruit  thereof  ^^> '» 
much,  and  in  it  ivas  meat  for  all ;  under  which  the 
beasts  of  the  field  dwelt,  and  upon  whose  branches 
the  fowls  of  the  heaven  had  their  habitation : 

22  It  15  "  thou,  O  king,  that  art  grown  and  become  ','2^7^'"" 
strong:  for  thy  greatness  is  grown,  and  reacheth  unto  i^i^% 
heaven,  and  thy  dominion  to  the  end  of  the  earth.       • 

23  And  whereas  the  king  saw  a  watcher  and  a 
holy  one  "  coming  down  from  heaven,  and  saying,  »^j,5^\ 
Hew  the  tree  down,  and  destroy  it ;  yet  leave  the  Rom.i.u. 
stump  of  the  roots  thereof  in  the  earth,  even  with  a 
band  of  iron  and  brass  in  the  tender  grass  of  the  field  ; 
and  let  it  be  wet  w  ith  the  dew  of  heaven,  and  let  his 
portion  be  with  the  beasts  of  the  field,  till  seven 
times  pass  over  him  ; 

24  This  is  the  interpretation,  O  king,  and  this  is 
the  decree  of  ^  the  Most  High,  which  is  come  upon 
my  lord  the '  king : 

23  That  they  shall  drive  thee  from  men,  and  thy 
dwelling  shall  be  with  the  beasts  of  the  field,  and 
they  shall  make  thee  to  cat  grass  as  oxen,  and  they

33  The  '  same  hour  was  the  thing  fulfilled  upon 
Nebuchadnezzar :  and  he  was  driven  from  men,  and 
did  *  eat  grass  as  oxen,  and  his  body  was  wet  with 
the  dew  of  heaven,  till  his  hairs  were  grown  like  ea- 
ghs' fealliers,  and  his  nails  like  birds'  claws. 

34  And  "at  the  endof  thedaysl  Nebuchadnezzar 
"lifted  up  mine  eyes  unto  heaven,  and  ^  mine  under- 
standing returned  unto  me,  and  1  ^  blessed  the  Most 
High,  and  I  praised  and  honoured  hirn  that "  jiyeth 

tjchr.  12,  for  ever,  whose  dominion  js  an ''everlastingdominion, 
"  and  his  kingdom  ii.  frorn  generation  to  generation  : 

35  And  all  the  inhabitants  of  the  earth  are  reputed 
"as  nothing  :  and  he  doeth  according  to  his  will  in 
the  army  of  heaven,  and  amo7ig  tl){i  inhabitants  of 
the  earth ;  and  none  ''  can  stay  his  hand,  or  say  unto 
him,  What  doest  thou  ? 

36  At  the  same  time  my  reason  returned  unto  me ; 
and,  for  the  glory  of  my  kingdom,  mine  honour  and 
brightness  returned  unto  me  ;  and  my  *  counsellors 
and  my  lords  sought  uiuo  me  ;  and  I  was  established 
in  my  kingdom  ;  and  excellent  majesty  was  '  added 
unto  me. 

37  Now  I  Nebuchadnezzar  praise  and  extol  and 
honour  the  King  of  heaven,  all  whose  works  ^  are 
truth,  and  his  wavs  judgment :  and  those  that  walk 
"in  pride  he  is  able  to  abase. 

CHAPTER  V. 

.'.  Belshazzar's  impious  feast.. ..5  A  hand-writing  on  the  wall. 
ELSHAZZAK  the  king  made  "a  great  feast  to 
a  thousand  of  his  lords,  and  drank  wine  before 
the  thousand. 

2  Belshazzar,  while  he  ''tasted  the  wine,  com- 
manded to  bring  the  golden  and  silver  vessels  which 
his  father  Nebuchadnezzar  had  "  taken  out  of  the 
temple  which  was  in  Jerusalem  ;  that  the  king  and 
his  princes,  his  wives  and  his  concubines,  might 
'' drink  therein. 

3  Then  "they  brought  the  golden  vessels  that  were 
taken  out  of  the  temple  of  the  house  of  God  which 

1  Gen.  10,4.  ^jY«s  at  Jerusalem ;  and  '  the  king  and  his  princes,  his 
wives  and  his  concubines,  drank  in  them. 

4  They  drank  wine  and  ^  praised  the  gods  of  gold, 
and  of  silver,  of  brass,  of  iron,  of  wood,  and  of  stone. 

3  In  the'' same  hourcame  forth  'fingers  of  a  man's 
\|-j,8,24.  hand,  and  wrote  over  against  the  candlestick  upon 
the  "  plaster  of  the  wall  of  the  king's  palace;  and 
the  king  saw  the  part  of  the  hand  that  wrote. 
6  Then  the  king's  'countenance  was  changed.and  his 
thoughts  troubled  him,  so  that  the  joints  of  his  loins 
were  loosed,andhis"'knees  smote  one  againstanother. 

7  The  king  cried  aloud  "  to  bring  in  the  astrolo- 
ra  Prov.  17,  gcrs,  tlic  Chaldeaus,  and  the  soothsayers.  And  the 
Nah.2,10.  king  spake,  and  said  to  the  wise  me7i  of  Babylon, 
K°»"6^if  Whosoever  shall  read  this  writing,  and  shew  me  the 

intornretation  thereof,  shall  be  clothed  with  scarlet, 
and  have  a  chain  of  gold  about  his  neck,  and  shall 
be  the  °  third  ruler  in  the  kingdom. 

8  Then  came  in  all  the  king's  wise  m€7i :  but  they 
could  not  P  read  the  writing,  nor  make  known  to 
the  king  the  interpretation  thereof.

king  named  Belteshazzar:  now  let  Daniel  be  called, 
and  he  will  shew  the  interpretation. 

13  Then  was  Daniel  brought  in  before  the  king.

which  is  called  by  thy  name  :  for  we  do  not  present

man  Gabriel,  whom  I  had  seen  in  the  vision  at  the 
beginning,  being  caused  to  lly  "  swiftly,  touched  me 
about  the  time  of  the  "evening  oblation. 

22  And  he  p  informed  me,  and  talked  with  me,  and 
said,  O  Daniel,  I  am  now  come  forth  to  give  thee 
skill  and  understanding. 

23  At  the  "  beginning  of  thy  supplications  the 
commandment  came  forth,  and  I  am  conj,e  to  shew 
thee;  for  thou  artfgve-dtly  beloved :  therefore  under-

to  '  anoint  the  Most  Holy.  i 

25  "  Know,  therefore,  and  understand,  that  from  ■ 
the  *  going  forth  of  the  commandment  to  restore  and 
to  build  Jerusalem,  unto  the  ^  Messiah  the  Prince, 
shall  be  seven  weeks,  and  threescore  and  two  weeks :

1  Daniel,  ha'-ing  humbled  liimself,  sectli  a  vi.sion  :  10  Being 
troubled  with  fear,  h"  h  comforted  by  the  angel. 

IN  the  third  year  of  Cyriis  king  of  Persia,  "  a  thing 
was  revealed  unto  Daniel,  whose  name  was  call- 
ed Belteshazzar ;  and  the  thing  loas  true,  but  the 
time  ajipointed  ivas  ^  long  :  and  he  '  understood  the 
thing,  and  had  understanding  of  the  vision. 


Dantel  covifoiied  by  an  angel. 

6  His  body  also  was  like  the  beryl,  and  his  '  face 
as  the  ap[)earance  of  lightning,  and  his  eyes  as  lamps 
of  lire,  and  his  arms  and  his  feet  like  m  colour  to  ^^^ 
polished  brass,  and  the  voice  of  his  words  like  the  iirV  i.ti. 
voice  of  a  multitude. 

7  And  I  Daniel  "  alone  saw  the  vision :  for  the  S\vt'.',^p, 
men  that  were  with  me  saw  not  the  vision  ;  but  a 
great  quaking  fell  upon  them,  so  that  they  "  fled  to  "aen.3.19 
hide  themselves. 

8  Therefore  I  vas  left  alone,  and  saw  this  great 
vision,  and  there  remained  "  no  strength  in  nie  :  for  ni  cor.  u, 
my  comeliness  was  turned  in  me  into  corruption,  and  '•  ^' 
I  retained  no  strength. 

9  ^  Yet  hettrd  I  the  voice  of  his  words  :  and  when 
I  heard  the  voice  of  his  words,  then  was  I  in  a  deep 
sleep  on  my  face,  and  my  face  '*  toward  the  ground, 

10  And,  behold,  a  hand  '  touched  me,  which  set  '"'''■•*•'■' 
me  upon  my  knees  and  upon  the  palms  of  my  hands : 

1 1  And  he  said  unto  me,  O  Daniel, '  a  man  greatly  ,  ^^  0,23 
beloved,  understand  the  words  that  I  speak  unto  thee, 
and  'stand  upright :  for  unto  thee  am  I  now  sent.  *•"*'"'  " '" 
And  when  he  had  spoken  this  word  unto  me,  1  stood 
trembling. 

12  Then  said  he  unto  me,  "  Fear  not,  Daniel ;  for 
'  from  the  first  day  that  thou  didst  set  thy  heart  to  un- 
derstand, and  to  chasten  thyself  before  thy  (Jod,  thy  «Actsio,4 
words  were  heard,  and  I  am  come  for  thy  words.       ^^^^^,^ 

1 3  But  the  ^  prince  of  the  kingdom  of  Persia '  with-  Ep"X  si- 
stood  me  one  and  twenty  days:  but,  lo,  "Michael,  .i:pu. 6,r.> 
one  of  the  chief  |)rinces,  came  to  help  me;  and  1 
remained  there  with  ihc  kings  of  Persia. 

14  Now  I  am  come  to  make  thee  understand  what 
shall  befall  thy  people  in  the  •*  latter  days :  for  yet  the  t  iioso.  3 
vision  is  for  many  days. 

15  And  when  he  had  spoken  such  words  unto  me, 
I  set  my  face  toward  the  ground,  and  I  became 
dumb. 

IG  And,  behold,  one  like  the  similitude  of  the  sons 
of  men  '  touched  mv  lips :  then  I  opened  my  mouth

I  Hoscii,  to  shew  God's  judgment  for  spiiitiml  whoredom,  tak- 
etli  Corner,  &C....10  Jiidah  and  Israel  restored. 

THE  word  of  the  Lord  that  '  came  unto  Hosea, 
the  son  of  Beeri,  in  the  days  of  Uzziah,  Jotham, 
Ahaz,  and  Hezekiah,  kings  of  Judah,  and  in  the 
d;iys  of  JerAboam  the  son  of  .loash,  king  of  Israel. 

2  The  beginning  of  the  word  of  the  Loud  |i  by 
Hosea.  And  the  Loud  said  to  Hosea,  Go,  take  unto 
thee  a  wife  of  whoredoms,  and  children  of  whore- 
doms; for  the  land  hath  committed  'great  whore- 
dom, "  departing  from  the  Lord. 

3  So  he  went  and  took  Gomer,  the  daughter  of 
Diblaim ;  which  conceived,  and  bare  him  a  son. 

4  And  the  Lord  said  unto  him,  Call  his  name 
.le/reei ;  for  yet  a  little  ichile,  and  I  w\\\  avenge  the 
l)loodof '' Jezreel  upon  the  house  of  .lehu,  and  will 
cause  to  cease  the  kingdom  of  the  "  house  of  Israel. 

5  And  it  shall  come  to  pass  at  that  day,  that  I  will 
^  bro'ik  ?I:e  bow  of  Israel  in  the  valley  of  .J(;zrccl.

G  And  she  conceived  apin,  and  bare  a  daughter. 
And  God  said  unto  him,  Caliber  name  Lo-ruham;di : 
for  I  will  ^no  more  have  mercy  upon  the  house  of 
Israel ;  but  I  will  "  utterly  lake  them  away. 

7  But  1  will  have  mercy  upon  the  house  of  .Judah, 
and  will  save  them  'by  the  Lord  their  God, and  u  ill 
not  saA  e  them  ''  by  bow,  nor  by  sword,  nor  by  i^attle, 
by  horsi's,  nor  by  horsemen. 

8  Now  whe;i  she  had  '  weaned  Lo-ruhamali,  b!ie 
conceived,  and  bare  a  son. 

9  Then  said  God,  Call  his  name  Lo-amnii :  for 
ye  are  "'not  my  i)eople,  and  1  v\  ill  not  be  you    Oui. 

10  Yet  the  number  of  the  "children  of  Israi  i  shall 
be  as  the  sand  of  the  sea,  which  caruiot  be  uiensnred

people,  there  it  shall  be  said  unto  them,  Ye  are  the 

"  sons  of  the  living  God.

dren of  Israel  be  ''gathered  togethc;,  and  appoint

1  Jotl,  declaring  .sundry  judgmenl,sotGod,e.\liortPlli  to  observe 
iliom,  and  to  mourn  :  14  lie  prescribetii  a  fast. 

THE  "word  of  the  Lord  that  came  to  Joel,  the 
son  of  Petluiel. 

2  "  Hear  this,  ve  old  men,  and  give  ear,  all  yc 
inhabitants  of  the  land.  Hath  this  been  in  "your 
days,  or  even  in  the  days  of  your  fathers  .^ 

3  Tell  ye"your  children  of  it,and/e/yourchild!  en  ?c// 
their  children,  and  theirchildren  another  generation : 

4  That  which  the  palmer-worm  hath  left,  ''  hath 
tht;  locust  eaten  ;  and  that  which  the  locust  hath  left, 
hath  tilt;  canker-worm  eaten ;  and  that  which  the 
canker-worm  hath  left,  hath  the  eaterpilirr  eaten. 

5  '  Awake,  ye  drunkards,  and  \veei) ;  and  howl, 
all  ye  drinkers  of  wine,  because  of  the  new  wine  ; 
for  h  is  ^cut  off  from  your  mouth. 

6  For  ''a  nation  is  come  up  upon  'my  land,  strong, 
and  without  number,  whose  teeth  are  the  teeth  ola 
lion,  and  he  hath  t!ie  "cheek-teeth  of  a  great  lion. 

7  He  hath  laid  my 'vine  waste,  and'"  barked  my 
fig-tree 


he  hath  maile  it  clean  bare,  and  cast  ?7  away ; 


the  branches  therLH)f  are  made  white. 


8  Lament  like  a  "  virgin  giiv'.ed  w  itli  sackcloth  lor 
the  husband  of  her  youth 

9  The  "  meat-ofiering  and  the  drink-olfering  is 
(;ut  off  from  the  house  of  the  Lord  :  the  ■'  priests, 
the  I^ord's  ministers,  mourn. 

10  The  field  is  wasted,  ^the  land  mourneth  ;  lor 
the  corn  is  wasted  :  the  new  wine  is  dried  up,  the  oil 
languislieth. 

1 1  '  Be  ye  ashamed,  O  ye  husbandmen  ;  howl,  O 
ye  vine-drcssers,  for  the  wheat  and  for  the  barley  ; 
because  the  harvest  of  the  field  is  perished. 

12  The  vine  is  dried  up,  and  the  fig-tree  languisli- 
eth ;  the  i)omegranatc-trec,  the  i)alm-tree  also,  and 
the  apple-tree,  even  all  the  trees  of  the  field,  are  with- 
ered: because  \)oy  is  withered  away  from  th?  sons 
of  men. 

13  Gird  yourselves,  and  lament,  ye  priests ;  howl, 
ye  '  ministers  of  the  altar ;  come,  "  lie  all  night  in 
sackcloth,  ve  ministers  of  my  God  :  for  the  meat- 
offering and  the  drink-offering  "  is  withholden  from 
the  iiousc  of  vour  God. 

14  Sanctify  ye  ^a  fast,  call  a  solemn  assembly, 
gather  the  elders,  and  all  the  'inhabitants  of  the  land,

CHAPTER  L 

Amos  shewetli  God's  judgments  upon  Syria,  &c 
ryi HE  words  of  Amos,  V.  ho  was  a 
-•-  n!cn  of '^'Tekoa,  whi  h  he  saw  concerning  Israel 
in  the  days  of  Uzziali  king  of  Judah,  and  in  the  days 
of  Jeroboam  the  son  of  Joasb  king  oi"  Israel,  two 
years  before  the  "^  caitluiuake. 

2  And  he  said,  ''  The  J  ^ord  will "  roar  from  Zion, 
and  utter  his  voice  from  Jerusalem  ;  and  the  habita- 
tions of  the  shepherds  shall  mourn,  and  the  top  of 
(  armel  shall  wither. 

.i  Thus  saith  the  Lord,  For '  three  transgressions 
of  Damascus,  and  for  ^  four,  1  will  not  turn  away  the 
punishment  thereof;  because  they  ''have  threshed 
Gilead  with  threshing-instruments  of  iron  : 

■\  But  '  I  will  send  a  fire  into  the  house  of  Hazael, 
which  shall  devour  the  palaces  of  Ben-hadad. 

.")  1  will  break  also  the  ^  bar  of  Damascus,  and  cut 
oft  the  inhabitant  from  the  |)lain  of  Aven,  and  him 
that  holdf'th  the  sceptre  from  the  house  of  Eden  ; 
and  the  people  of  Syria  shall  go  int(.  captivity  unto 
Kir,  saith  the  Lord. 

6  11  Thus  saith  the  Lord,  Forthrce  transgressions 
of  (ja/a,  and  for  four,  1  will  not  turn  away  the  pun- 
ishiiienf  thereof;  because  tbey  'carried  away  captive? 
the  v.hole  captivity,  to  deliver  tlicm  up  to  l^dom  : 

7  lint  f  will  send  "'  a  fire  on  the  wall  of  Ga/a, 
which  shall  devour  the  palaces  thereof: 

o  And  1  will  cut  off  the  inhabitant  from  Aslidod, 
and  \\\m  that  holdeth  the  sceptre  from  Ashkelon  ,•  and 
!  will  "  tnrn  n»v  hand  against  K.kwin  :  and  the  "  rem- 


nant of  the  Phi  listinesshall  perish,  saith  the  Lord  Goo. 

9  11  Thus  saith  the  Lord,  I'or  three  transgres- 
sions of  Tyrus,  and  for  four,  1  will  r.ot  turn  awa}'  the 
punishment  thereof;  because  they  delivered  up  the 
whole  captivity  ''  to  Edom,  and  remembered  not  the 
''  brotherly  covenant : 

10  But  I  will  send  a  firq  on  "■  the  wall  of  Tyrus, 
which  shall  devour  the  palaces  thereof. 

1 1  H  Thussaiththe  Lord, For  three  transgressions 
of  Etlom,and  for  four,  I  will  not  turn  away  the  pun- 
ishment thereof;  bcause  he  did  '  pursue  his  brother 
with  the  sword,  and  did  cast  off  all  pity,  anil  his  anger 
did  tear  perpetually,  and  he  kept  his  wrath  for  e.er : 

12  But  1  will  send  afire  upon  'Teman,  which 
shall  devour  the  palaces  of  Bozrah. 

13  11  Thus  saith  the  Lord,  For  three  transgres- 
sions of  the  children  of  Amnion,  and  lor  four,  1  will 
not  turn  n\\i\y  the  punishment  {hereof ;  because  they 
have  ''  ripped  up  the  w-omen  with  child  of  Gilead, 
that  they  might  "  enlarg.3  their  border  : 

11.  But  I  w  ill  kindle  a  fire  in  the  wall  of  Rabbah,

ing in  the  day  of  battle,  wilh  a  tempest  in  {he  day  of

Judgments  qf  the  grasshoppers,  ^c.         CHAPTER  VII....VIII....1X 

Before        12  Shall  hoFses "  run  upon  the  rock  ?  will  one  pl«r.v  J 
'  "tf?!**^  there  with  oxen  ?  for  ye  have  turned  judgment  into' 
gall,  and  the  fruit  of  rijjhteousness  into  'hemlock. 

13  Ye  which  rejoice  in  a  thing  of  "^  nought,  which 
say,  Have  we  not  taken  to  us  horns  by  '  our  own 
strengtii  ?

and  they  shall  afflict  you  from  the  entering  in  of 
Hamatli  unto  the  river  of  the  wilderness. 
CHAPTER  VII. 

Tlic  judgments  of  grasshoppers,  and  of  fire,  are  diverted  by  the 
prayer  of  Amos,  &c. 

11 H  OS  hath  the  Lord  God  shewed  unto  me  ;  and, 
-  behold,  he  formed  *  grasshoppers  in  the  begin- 
ning of  the  shooting  up  of  the  latter  growth  ;  and,  lo, 
it  teas  the  latter  growth  after  the  king's  mowings. 
2  And  it  came  to  pass,  that  when  they  had  made 
''an  end  of  eating  the  grass  of  the  land,  then  I  said, 
'  O  Lord  God,  forgive,  I  beseech  thee  ;   by  whom

vision  of  Obadiah.  Thus  saith  the  Lord 
coact>rning  Edom,  "  We  have  heard  a  ru- 
mour from  the  Lord,  and  an  ambassador  is  sent 
among  th<!  heathen,  "  Arise  ye,  and  let  us  rise  up 
against  iicr  in  battle. 

'2  Behold,  1  have  made  thee  '  small  among  the 
heathen  :  thou  art  greatly  despised. 

3  The  pride  of  thy  heart  hath '' deceived  thee,  thou 
that  dvvellest  in  the  clefts  of  the  rock,  whose  habita- 
tion iH  high ;  that  *  saith  in  his  heart .  Who  shall  bring 
me  down  to  the  ground  .'' 

4  Though  thou  exalt  thyself  as  the  eagle,  and 
though  thou  set  thy  '  nest  among  the  stars,  thence 
w  ill  1  bring  thee  down,  saith  the  Lord. 

o  Uf  thieves  cam(3  to  thee,  if  robbers  by  night, 
(how  art  thou  cut  ofY!)  would  they  not  have  stolen 
till  they  had  enough ."  if  the  grape-gatherers  came 
to  thee,  would  they  "  not  leave  some  grapes  t 

6  How  are  the  ||  things  of  Esau  searched  out ! 
how  are  his  hidden  things  sought  up! 

?  All  the  men  of  thy  '  confederacy  have  brought 
thee  cten  to  the  border :  the  men  that  were  at  peace 
with  thee  have  "^  deceived  thee,  and  prevailed  against 
thee ;  they  that  eat  thy  bread  have  laid  a  wound  under 
thee :  there  is  none  understanding  in  him. 

8  Shall  I  not  in  that  day,  saith  the  Lord,  even 
destroy  '  the  wise  men  out  of  Edom,  and  under- 
standing out  of  the  mount  of  Esau  ? 

9  And  thy  "  mighty  men,  O  Teman,  shall  be  dis- 
mayed, to  the  end  that  every  one  of  the  mount  of 
Esau  may  be  cut  off  by  slaughter, 

10  For  thy  "  violence  against  thy  brother  Jacob, 
shame  sliall  cover  thee,  and  thou  shalt  be  cut  off "  for 
ever. 

i  1  In  the  day  that  thou  stoodest  on  the  other  side, 
in  the  day  that  the  ^  strangers  carried  away  captive 
his  forces,  and  foreigners  entered  into  his  gates,  and 
"  ca&t  lots  upon  Jerusalem,  even  thou  ivast  as  one  of 
them. 


12  But  thou  shonldest  not  have  ""looked  on  the  day 
of  thy  brother,  in  the  day  that  he  became  a  stranger ; 
neither  shonldest  thou  have  '  rejoiced  over  the  chil- 
dren of  Judah  in  the  day  of  their  destruction;  neither 
shonldest  thou  have  spoken  i)roudly  in  the  day  of 
distress. 

13  Thou  shoulih^st '  not  have  entered  into  the  gate 
of  my  people  in  the  day  of  their  cah  mity  ;  yea,  thou 
sliouldest  not  have  looked  on  their  aflliction  in  tht> 
day  of  their  calamity,  nor  have  laid  hands  on  their 
substance  in  the  day  of  their  calamity  : 

14  Neither  shonldest  thou  have  stood  in  the  cross- 
way,  tocutoff  those  of  his  that  did  escape  ;  neither 
shonldest  thou  have  delivered  up  those  of  his  that 
did  remain  in  the  day  of  distress. 

15  For  the  "  day  of  the  Lord  is  near  upon  all  the 
heathen :  "as  thoii  hast  done,  it  shall  be  done  unto

they  shall  drink,  and  they  shall  ^  swallow  down,  and 
they  shall  be  as  though  they  had  not  been.

and  there  shall  be  holiness  ;  and  the  house  of  Jacob

taken  by  a  teinpest,,  iiiiii  tiirown  into  tlie  sea,  &c. 

NOW  tlic  word  ot' the  liOiiD  came  '"  unto  Ji)uali, 
the  son  oi'  Anjittai,  saying, 

2  .\iise,  go  to  Nineveh,  ''  that  peat  city,  and  cry 
afj.aiii.'st  it ;  lor  tlieir  wickedness  is  come  up  *■■  before 
me. 

3  But  .Junaii  lose  up  ''  to  flee  unlo  Tarsliish ''  from 
the  presence  oi'  the  Lord,  and  went  down  to  Jop- 
pa  ;  and  lu;  found  a  shii»  soins  to  Tarshisli ;  so  lie 
paid  the  fare  tht  reof,  anti  went  down  into  it,  to  ^o 
with  them  unto  Tarj-liisli  ''  iron)  the  presence  of  the 
Loud. 

4  But  tlie  Loud  ^seiit  out  a  i^reat  wind  into  the 
sea,  and  there  was  a  mi^lity  tempest  in  the  sea,  so 
lliat  the  ship  was  hke  to  be  broken. 

o  Tiien  the  mariners  were  aiVaid,  and  cried  every 
Tuau  "^  unto  iiis  '^m\,  and  "  cast  ibrth  the  wares  that 
ut'/f  in  the  ship  into  tiie  sea,  to  Hghteu  it  of  them  : 
hut  .loiiah  was  gone  down  into  the  sides  of  the  ship ; 
and  he  hiy,  and  was  '  fast  asleoi). 

6  >50  the  shii)master  came  to  liim,  and  said  unto 
iiim,  ''What  meanest  thou,  O  sleeper.^  arise,  'call 
upon  thy  God,  if  so  be  that  God  will  think  ui)on  us, 
that  we  perish  not. 

7  And  llicy  said  every  one  to  hisiellow,  Come,  and 
let  us '"  cast  lots,  that  we  may  know  ibr  whose  cause 
this  evil  is  upon  us.  So  they  cast  lots,  and  the  lot 
"  tell  ui)on  Jonah. 

!!  Then  said  they  imto  him, "  Tell  us,  wo  pmy  thee, 
(or  whose  cause  this  evil  is  upon  us  :  What  is  ^  thine 
occui)ation  .'  aiul  whence  comest  thou  r  what  ?s  thy

9  And  he  said  imto  them,  1 "  am  a  Hebrew ;  and 
'  I  iear  the  Loud,  the  God  of  heaven,  which  hath 
made  the  sea  and  the  dry  land. 

10  Then  were  the  men  exceedingly  "afraid,  and 
said  unto  him,  Why  hast  '  thou  done  this  ?  (for  the 
men  knew  that  he  iled  from  the  presence  of  tiio  LouD; 
because  he  had  told  them.) 

11  Then  said  they  unto  him,  "  What  shall  we  do 
unto  thee,  that  the  sea  may  be  calm  imto  us  ?  (for 
the  sea  wrought,  and  was  tempestuous.)

13  Nevertheless,  the  men  '  rowed  hard  to  bring  it 
to  the  laud ;  but  they  'could  not:  for  the  sea  wrought, 
aiul  was  tempestuous  against  them. 

14  Wherefore  they  cried  tmto  the  Lord,  aiul  said. 
We  beseech  thee,  O  L()Ri>,  we  beseech  thee,  let  us 
luit  jierish  for  this  man's  life,  and  lay  not  upon  us

CHAPTER  H. 

1  The  prayer  of  Jonah  :   10  He  is  delivered  out  of  the  belly

THEN  Jonah  jirayed unto  the  Lord  hisGod  "out

2  And  said,  1  cried  [)y  reason  of  mine  al'lliction

I  about:  all  thy  billows  and  thy  waves  nassed  over  me. 

4  Then  "  1  .said,  I  am  cast  out  of  thy  sight ;  yet  I 
will  'look  again  toward  thy  holy  temple. 

5  The  s v^atcMs  compass(;d  me  about  cirn  to  the 
soul :  the  dei)th  closed  me  round  about,  the  wt^eds 
were  wra,)ped  about  my  head. 

5  6  I  went  down  to  the  bottoms  of  the  mountains  ; 
5  the  earth  with  her  bars  was  about  me  for  ever  :  ''  yet 

hast  thou  brought  up  my  life  from  corrujjtion,  O  Loud

7  When  my  soul  fainted  within  me  '  I  remembered

i  Jonah,  sent  again,  pieaehetli  to  the  Ninevites,  &c. 

I  4  ND  the  word  of  tlie  IjOUD  came  unto  Jonah  the 
i  -LM.  "  second  time,  saying, 

I  2  Arise,  go  unto  iS'ineveh,  that  great  city,  -ind

I  4  And  Jonah  began  to  enter  into  the  city  a  day's 
IJourney  ;  and  he  cried,  and  said,  '  Yet  forty  days, 
and  Nineveh  shall  be  overthrown. 

.5  So  the  "  people  of  Nineveh  believed  God,  and 
proclaimeil  a  fast,  and  i)ut  on  sackcloth,  from  the 
greatest  of  them  even  to  the  least  of  theni. 

6  For  word  came  unto  the  king  of  Nineveh,  and 
'  he  :-.rosc  from  his  throne,  and  he  laid  his  robe  froni 
him,  and  covered  him  with  sackcloth,  and  sat  in

7  And  he  caused  it  to  be  proclaimed  and  "  pub-

and  his  nobles,)  saying.  Let  neither  man  nor  lieast,

CHAPTER  I. 

I  Unto  ilabalvliuk,  complaining  of  the  iniquity  of  the  land,  5  is 
sliewed  the  fearful  vengeance  by  the  Chaldeans. 

THE  burden  whicli  Habakkuk  the  prophet  did 
"  see. 

2  O  Lord,  "  ho\'  long  shall  I  cry,  and  thou  wilt 
"  not  hear  !  even  cry  out  unto  thee  of  violence,  and 
tliou  wilt  not  save! 

3  Why  dost  thou  *"  shew  me  iniquity,  and  cause 
7ne  to  behold  grievance  .''  for  spoiling  and  violence  j 
arc  before  me :  and  there  are  that  raise  up  strife  and  I 
contention.  \ 

4  Thereforethelawis'slacked,and  judgmentdoth ; 
never  go  forth  :  for  the  wicked  doth '  compass  about  l 
the  righteous ;  ^therefore  wrongjudgment  proceedeth.  f 

5  H  Behold  ye  among  the  heathen,  and  regard,  i 
and  wonder  marvellously :  for  I  will ''  work  a  work  s 
in  your  days,  ivhich  ye  will '  not  believe,  though  iti 
be  told  you.  _       | 

6  For  !o»  I  raise  u"  the  ^  ChalJeanS;;  that  bitter? 


and  '  hasty  nation,  which  shall  march  through  the 
breadth  of  the  land,  to  possess  the  dwelling-places 
that  are  not  theirs. 

7  They  we  terrible  and  dreadful :  their  judgment 
and  their  dignity  shall  proceed  of  themselves. 

8  Their  horses  also  are  swifter  than  the  leopards, 
and  are  more  fierce  than  the  ^  evening  wolves :  and 
their  horsemen  shall  spread  themselves,  and  their 
horsemen  shall  come  from  far  ;  they  shall  fly  as  the 
"  eagle  that  hasteth  to  eat. 

9  They  shall  come  all  for  violence:  their  faces  shall 
•sup  up  as  the  "  east  wind,  and  they  shall  gather  the 
captivity  as  the  sand. 

10  And  they  shall  scoft"  ''at  the  kings,  and  the 
princes  shall  be  a  scorn  unto  them  :  they  shall  deride 
every  t;trong  hold ;  for  they  shall  '  heap  dust,  and 
take  it. 

1 1  Then  shall  'his  mind  change,  and  he  shall  pass 
over,  and  oft'end,  imputing  this  his  power  unto  his

CHAPTER  I. 

1   Wlien  Zephaniah  prophesied. ...2  God's  severe  judgment 
against  Judah  for  divers  sins. 

THE  °  word  of  the  Lord  which  came  unto  Ze- 
phaniah the  son  of  Cushi,  the  son  of  Gedaiiah, 
the  son  of  Amariah,  the  son  of  Hizkiah,  in  the  days 
of  Josiah  the  son  of  Anion  king  of  J  udah. 

2  1  will  utterly  ''consume  all  tilings  from  off  the 
land,  saith  the  Lord. 

3  I  will '  unsume  '^  man  and  beast ;  I  will  consume 
the  fowls  of  the  heaven,  and  the  fishes  of  the  sea; 
and  the  ''  stumbl'ng  locks  with  tiie  wicked  ;  and  1 
w  ill  cut  ott"  man  from  off  the  laiui,  saith  the  Lord. 

4  1  will  also  stretch  out  my  hand  upon  Judah,  and 
upon  all  the  inhabitants  of  Jerusalem ;  and  1  will 
cut  off  the  remnant  of "  Baal  from  this  place,  and 
the  name  of  the  Chemarims  with  the  priests; 

5  And  them  that  worship  the  host  of  heaven  upon 
the  house-tops ;  and  them  that  worship  and  that 
'  swear  by  the  Lord,  and  that  swear  by  Malcham  ; 

6  And  tlitnn  that  are  ^turned  back  from  the  Lord  ; 
and  those  that  have  "not  sought  tlieLonD,  nor  inquired 
for  him. 

7  '  Hold  iUy  peace  at  the  presence  of  the  Lord  God  ; 
for  the  day  of  the  Lord  is  at  hand:  for  the  Lord 
hath  prepared  ^  a  sacrifice,  he  hath  bid  his  guests. 

8  And  it  shall  come  to  pass  in  the  day  of  the  Lord's 
sacrifice,  that  I  will  punish  the  princes,  and  the '  king's 
children,  and  all  such  as  arc  clothed  with  strange 
apparel. 

9  In  the  same  day  also  will  1  punish  all  those  that 
leap  on  the  threshold,  which  "'  fill  their  masters' 
houses  w  ith  violence  and  oeceit. 

10  And  it  shall  come  to  pass  in  that  day,  saith  the 
Lord,  that  there  shall  be  the  "  noise  of  a  cry  from  the 
fish-gate,  :ind  a  howling  from  the  second,  and  a  great 
crashing  from  the  hills. 

11°  Howl,  ye  inhabitants  of  Maktesh,  for  all  the 
merchant  peo[)le  are  t  ut  down  ;  all  they  that  bear 
silver  are  cut  off. 

12  And  it  shall  come  to  pass  at  tliattinie,//iffil  will 
■^  search  Jerusalem  with  candles,  and  punish  the  men 
that  arc  '^  settled  on  their  lees;  that  say  in  their  heart, 
The  IjOrd  w;ill  not  'do  good,  neither  will  he  do  evil. 

13  Therefore  their  goods  "  shall  become  a  booty, 
and  their  houses  a  desolation  :  they  shall  also  build 
houses,  but  not  inhabit  them ;  and  they  shall  plant 
vincvards,  but  not  drink  the  wine  ther^^of. 

14  The  '  great  day  of  tlie  Lord  is  near,  it  is  near, 
and  hasteth  greatly,  even  the  voice  of  the  day  of  the 
Lord  :  the  mighty  man  shall  cry  there  bitterly. 

15  "  That  day  is  a  day  of  wrath,  a  day  of  trouble 
and  distress,  a  day  of  wasteness  and  desolation,  a 
day  of  darkness  and  gloominess,  a  day  of  clouds  and 
thick'  darkless. 


I  IG  A  day  of  the  "  trumpet  and  alarm  against  the 
i  fenced  cities,  and  against  the  high  towers. 

17  And  I'will  bring  distress  ui)on  men,  that  they 
I  shall  walk  like  *'  blind  men,  because  they  have  sinned 
I  against  the  Lord  :  and  their  blood  shall  be  '■  poured 
lout  as  dust,  and  thqir  flesh  as  the  dung. 

ly  Neither  their  silver  nor  their  gold  shall  "be 
I  able  to  deliver  them  in  the  day  of  the  Lord's  wrath ; 
'  but  the  whole  land  shall  be  devoured  by  the  fire  of 
;  his  jealousy  :  for  he  shall  make  even  a  ''  speedy  rid- 
dance of  all  them  that  dwell  in  the  land. 
CHAPTER  II. 

4  The  judgment  olthe  Philistines,  8  ofMoaband  Amnion,  12  of 
Ethiopia,  13  and  Assyria. 

GATHER  yourselves  together,  yea,  gather  to- 
gether, O  nation  "not  desired  ; 

2  Before  the  ''decree  bring  forth,  before  the  day 
pass  astlie  chaff,  before  the  "fierce  anger  of  the  Lord 
come  upon  you,  before  the  day  of  the  Lord's  anger 
come  upon  you. 

3  Seek  ye  the  I/Ord,  all  ye  ''  meek  of  the  earth, 
which  have  wrought  his  judgment ;  seek  righteous- 
ness, seek  meekness  :  it  may  be  yc  shall  be  "  hid  in 
the  day  of  the  Lord's  anger. 

4  For  Gaza  shall  be  forsaken,  and  Ashkelon  a 
desolation :  they  shall  drive  out  Aslidodat  the  "^  noon- 
day, and  Ekron  shall  be  rooted  uj). 

I  5  Wo  unto  the  inhabitants  of  the  sea-coasts,  the 
i  nation  of  the  «  Cherethites !  the  word  of  the  Lord  is 
i  against  you ; ''  O  Canaan,  the  land  of  the  'Philistines,  I 
;  will  even  destroy  thee,thatthere  shall  be  noinhabitant. 
i  6  And  the  sea-coast  shall  be  dwellings  and  cot- 
i  tages  for  shepherds,  and  folds  for  flocks. 

7  And  the  coast  shall  be  for  the  ■■  remnant  of  the 
house  of  Judah ;  they  shall  feed  thereupon :  in  the 
houses  of '  Ashkelon  shall  they  lie  down  in  the  eve- 
ning ;  for  the  Lord  their  God  shall  visit  them,  and 
■"  turn  away  their  captivity. 

8  H  I  have  heard  the  "  reproach  of  Moab,  and  the 
revilings  of  the  children  oi  Amnion,  whereby  they 
liavc  reproached  my  pcoi)le,aiid  magnified //»emsc/tr.s 
against  their  border. 

9  Therefore,  as  I  live,  saith  the  Lord  of  hosts,  the 
God  of  Israel,  Surely  "Moab  shall  be  as  Sodom,  and 
the  children  of  Amnion  as  Gomorrah,  even  the  brccd- 
ingof  nettles, and  salt-pits,andaperpetual  desolation: 
the  residue  of  my  [leople  shall  ■"  spoil  them,  and  the 
remnant  of  my  people  shall  possess  thorn. 

10  This  shall  they  have  for  their  '^  pride,  because 
they  have  reproached  and  magnificd//ta/Jsc/tTS  against 
the  people  of  the  Lord  of  hosts. 

11  The  Lord  will  be  terrible  unto  tliern  :  for  lie 
will  ■  famish  all  the  gods  of  the  earth;  and  wicn  shall 
worship  him,  every  one  from  his  '  place,  even  all  the 
isles  of  the  heathen.

IN  the  "second  year  of  Darius  the  king,  in  the  sixth

the  Lord's  house  should  be  built.

16  Since  those  days  were,  when  one  came  to  a 
heap  of  twenty  measures,  there  were  but  ten  :  when 
one  came  to  the  press-fat,  for  to  draw  out  fifty  wsse/s 
out  of  the  press,  there  were  but  twenty. 

17  I  smote  you  with  "  blasting,  and  with  mildew,  J.^*^""

IN  the  "eighth  month,  in  the  second  year  of  Darius, 
came  the  word  of  the  Lord  unto  Zechariah,  the 
son  of  ^'Barachiah,  the  son  of  Iddo  the  pro])het,  saying,

1 1  But  they  refused  to  hearken,  and  ^  [lulled  away

not  hear. 

12  Yea,  they  made  their  hearts  as  an  "i  adamant-

giousness,  12  and  profaneness. 
HE  burden  ol"  the  word  of  the  Lord  to  "  Israel 
_    by  Malaclii. 

2  I  have  *■  loved  you,  saith  the  Lord  :  yet  ye  say, 
"  Wherein  hast  thou  '  loved  us  ?  ^flsnot  Esau  Jacob's 
brother  r  saith  the  Lord  :  yet  I  loved  Jacob, 

3  And  I  *  hated  Esau,  and  laid '  his  mountains  and 
i«!^;,4;  his  heritage  waste  for  the  dragons  of  the  wilderness. 


4  Whereas  Edom  saith.  We  are  « impoverished, 

I  but "  we  will  return  and  build  the  desolate  places : 

ithus  saith  the  Lord  of  hosts.  They  shall  build,  but  I 

Iwill  throw  down;  and  they  shall  call  them,   Ihe 

'border  of  wickedness,  and.  The  people  against 

whom  the  Lord  hath  indignation  for  ever. 

6  And "  your  eyes  shall  see,  and  ye  shall  say,  1  he 

Lord  will  be  ''magnined  from  the  border  of  brail.

Jerusalem  was  re-«difled,  and  built  again,  tfirr 
the  captivity  of  Babylon,  70  yearn. 

The  captivity  continued  70  years. 

The  children  of  Israel  were  delivereil  the  lii>>

The  temple  was  hegun  to  be  built  in  the  lecnnd 
year  of  the  said  Cj-rus,  and  finished  In  the  4t)ili 
year,  wjiirh  was  the  6th  year  of  Darius.  Aftei' 
that  Darius  had  reigned  20  years,  Nehcmiah 
was  restored  to  llheny,  and  went  to  build  the 
city,  which  was  finished  in  the  33il  year  of  ilie 
said  Darius. 

All  the  years  from  the  bnlWing  of  the  temple

From  the  re-edifvingoftbecity,  unto  theromiiiis 

of  Christ,  are  483  years  alter  this  chronology-.

I     that  Jerusalem  should  be  built  up  again,  and 

j     tliat  from  that  time  unto  the  coming  of  Christ 

I     are  69  weeks,  and  every  week  is  reckoned  fm 

I      7  years.    So  tj9  weeks  amount  to  483  years:  fur 

I     from  the  32d  year  of  Darius  unto  the  42<l  year 

of  Augustus,  in  which  year  our  Saviour  l.lii i«i 

was  born,  are  just  and  complete  so  many  years . 

whereupon  we  reckon,  that  from  Adam  uiii< 

Christ  are  3974  ycais,  U  months,  and  ten  daj> ; 

and  from  the  birth  of  Christ  unto  this  preieu- 

year,  is  1823. 

Then  the  whole  sum  and  numlier  of  years,  from 

the  beginning  of  the  world  unto  this  present

which  sowed  good  seed  in  his  field  :

and  I 


sowed  tares  among  the  wheat,  and  went  his  way.    I 

26  But  when  the  blade  was  si)rung  up,  and  brought  | 
lorth  fruit,  then  appeared  the  lares  also.  I 

27  ■"  So  the  servants  of  the  householder  came  and  | 
said  unto  l.iin,  Sir,  didst  not  thou  sow  good  scvd  in  J

28  Ho  said  unto  them.  An  enemy  haili  doiic  this. 
The  servants  said  unto  him,  \Vilt  thou  ilien  that  wej 

go  and  gather  them  up  r 

29  But  he  said,  Nay  ;  lest  while  ve  gather  up  the 
tares,  ye  root  up  also  the  wheat  with  them. 

30  "  Let  both  grow  toiicther  until  the  harvest:  and 
in  thetimeof  harvest!  will  say  to  the  reapers,  Gather: 
ye  together  first  the  tares,  and  bind  them  hi  bundies 
to  burn  them  :  but  gather  the  ivluai  into  my  barn. 

31  Ti "  Another  parablf  put  he  forth  unto  them, 


a  merchant-man  seeking  goodly  pearls:  /Prov.:,^ 

46  '  Who,  when  he  had  found  one  pearl  of  great  '"''"• 
l)rice,  he  went  and  sold  all  that  he  had,  and  bought  it.  ^„^',"|' ' 

47  II  Again :  The  kingtiom  of  heaven  is  like  unto 
a  net,  that  was  cast  into  the  sea,  and  gathered  of 
every  kind : 

18  Which,  when  it  was  Ail  I,  they  drew  to  shore, 
and  sat  down,  and  gathered  the  good  into  vessels, 
but  cast  the  bad  away. 

49  "  So  shall  it  be  at  the  end  of  the  world  :  the  bcL'»,j; 
angels  shall  come  forth,  and  sever  the  wicked  from 
among  the  just, 

."iU  '  And  shall  cast  them  into  the  furnace  of  fire  :  ""''^" 
there  shall  be  wailing  and  gna.shing  of  teeth. 

51  Jesus  saith  unto  them,  Have  ye  understood  all 
these  things  ?  They  say  unto  him,  Yea,  Lord. 

52  "  Then  said  he  unto  them.  Therefore  every  '^^^'^l\^

is  like  unto  umanthfdiQ  a  householder,  which  bring- 
rth  fovvii  out  of  his  treasure  things  new  and  old. 

53  It  And  it  came  to  pass,  that  when  Jesus  had 
finished  these  parables,  he  departed  thence.

handed  about  his  neck,  and  he  cast  into  the  sea,  than 
that  he  should  otllend  one  of  these  little  ones.

ye  may  be  the  children  of  light.  These  thing  s  spake 
Jesus,  and  departed,  and  did  hide  himself  from  them. 

37  H  But  though  he  had  done  so  many  miracles 
before  tiiem,  yet  they  believed  not  on  him : 

SU  '  That  the  saying  of  Esaias  the  i)rophet  might 
be  fulfilled,  which  he  spake,  Lord,  who  hath  believed 
our  report .''  and  to  whom  hath  the  arm  of  the  Lord 
been  revealed ."' 

3d  Therefore  they  could  not  believe,  because  that 
Esaias  said  again, 

40 '  He  hath  blinded  their  eyes,  and  hardened  their 
heart ;  that  tiiey  should  not  see  with  their  eyes,  nor 
understand  with  their  heart,  and  be  converted,  antl  I 
si'ould  heal  them. 

41  '  These  things  said  Esuias,  when  he  saw  his 
glory,  and  spake  of  him. 

42  1[ "  Nevertheless  among  the  chief  rulers  also 
many  believed  on  him  j  but  because  of  the  Pharisees 
ihey  did  not  confess  him,  lest  they  should  be  put  out 
(.(f  the  synagogue  : 

13  ^  For  they  lo\  cd  the  praise  of  men  more  than

'l."i  And  he  that  seetli  me,  sceth  him  that  sent  me. 

IG  '  I  am  conic  a  light  into  the  world,  that  vvhoso-

not.  f  .judge  him  not:  for  I  came  notto  j«dge  the

taken  his  garments,  and  was  set  down  again,  he  said 
unto  tliem.  Know  ye  what  I  have  done  to  you .''

spirit,  and  testified,  and  said.  Verily,  vorily,  I  say  un- 
to you,  That  one  of  you  shall  betray  me.

thine  own  self,  with  the  glory  which  I  had  Avith  thee 
before  the  world  was. 

6  H  n  have  manifested  thy  name  unto  the  men

20  When  they  desired  him  to  tarry  longer  time

because  he  would  not  spend  the  limi^  in  Asia ;  for  he 
hasted,  if  it  were  possible  for  him,tobeat.)erusalem 
the  day  of  Pentecost. 

17  it  And  from  Miletus  he  sent  to  Lphesus,  and 
called  the  elders  of  the  church. 

18  «And  when  they  were  come  to  him,  he  said 
unto  them,  Ye  know,  from  the  fust  day  that  I  came

CHAPTER  XXVII. 

1  Paul,  shipping  towards  Rome,  10  foretelleth  the  danger  of  the 
voyage,  but  is  not  believed,  &c. 

AND  when  it  was  determined  that  we  should  sail 
into  Italy,  they  delivered  Paul  and  oortam  other 
prisoners  unto  one  named  Julius,  a  centurion  ot  Au- 
gustus' band. 

^>  "And  entering  into  a  ship  of  Adramyttium,  \\e 
launched,  mean uig  to  sail  by  the^coastsot  Asia  ;  uiic 
Aristarchus,  a  Macedonian  ot  Ihessalonica,  being 

3  «  And  the  next  day  we  touched  at  Sidon.  And 
Julius  courteously  entreated  Paul,  and. gave  /wm 
liberty  to  go  unto  his  friends  to  refresh  hiniselt. 

4  And  when  we  had  launched  from  thence,  we 
sailedunderCyprus,becausethewindswerecontrary. 

5  And  when  we  had  sailed  over  the  sea  ot  Lilicia 
and  Pamphylia,  we  cameto  Myra,  aaty  ot  Lycia 

6  And  there  the  centurion  found  a  ship  ol  Alexan 
dria  sailing  into  Italy ;  and  he  put  us  therein. 

7  And  when  we  had  sailed  slowly  many  days,  and 
scarce  were  come  over  against  Cuidus,  the  wind  not 
suffering  us,  we  sailed  under  Crete,  over  against 

Salmone ;  .      .  ^        ,       „.i,:„u 

8  And  hardly  passing  it,  came  unto  a  place  which 
is  called,  The  Fair  Havens ;  nigh  whereunto  was  the 
city  o/ Lasea.  .  ,     , 

9  H  Now  when  much  time  was  spent,  and  when 
sailing  was  now  dangerous,  because  the  tast  was  now 
already  past,  Paul  admonished  them ;     . 

10  And  said  unto  them,  Sirs,  I  perceive  that  this 
voyage  will  be  with  hurt  and  much  damage,  not  oni> 
of  the  lading  and  ship,  but  also  of  our  lives. 


5     12  And  because  the  haven  was  not  commodious 
\  to  winter  in,  the  more  part  advised  to  depart  thence 
\  also,  if  by  any  means  they  might  attahi  to  Phenice, 
5  and  there  to  winter  ;  which  is  a  haven  of  Crete,  and 
\  lieth  toward  the  south-west  and  north-west. 
5     13  And  when  the  south  wind  blew  softly,  sup- 
j  posing  that  they  had  obtained  their  purpose,  loosing 
I  thence,  thev  sailed  close  by  Crete. 
i     14  But  not  long  after,  there  arose  against  it  f  a  J";-;;-" 
I  tempestuous  wind,  called  Euroclydon.  pJVm" 

\      15  And  when  the  ship  was  caught,  and  could  not       ' 
liear  up  into  the  wind,  we  let  her  drive. 

16  And  running  under  a  certain  island  which  is 
called  Clauda,  we  had  much  work  to  come  by  the 

boat :  ,     .  ,111 

1 7  Which  when  they  had  taken  up,  theyused  helps, 

undergirdingthe  ship;  and  fearing  lest  they  should  tall 
into  the  quicksands,  strake  sail,  and  so  were  driven. 

18  And  we  being  exceedingly  tossed  with  a  tem- 
pest, the  next  day  they  lightened  the  ship ; 

19  And  the  third  day  we  cast  out  with  our  own 
hands  the  tackling  of  th»  ship.  , 

\  20  And  when  neither  sun  nor  stars  in  many  days 
1  appeared,  and  no  small  tempest  lay  on  us,  all  hope 
I  that  we  should  be  saved  was  then  taken  away. 
i  21  IT  But  after  long  abstinence,  Paul  stood  forth  in 
j  the  midst  of  them,  and  said.  Sirs,  ye  should  have 
i  h'-arkcned  unto  me,  and  not  have  loosed  irom  Crete, 
J  and  to  have  gained  this  harm  and  loss. 

22  And  now  1  exhort  you  to  be  of  good  cheer :  tor 

there  shall  be  no  loss  of  any  man's  life  among  you, 

but  of  the  ship.

the  gospel  to  vou  that  are  at  Rome  also. 

16  °  For  I  am  notashamed  ofthe gospel  ol  Ghnst: 
for  it  is  the  power  of  God  unto  salvation  to  every 
one  that  believeth  ;  to  the  Jew  first,  and  also  to  the 
Greek 


God  into  an  image  made  like  to  corruptible  man,  and 
to  birds,  and  four-footed  beasts,  and  creeping  things. 
21  ^  Wherefore  God  also  gave  them  uptounclean- 
ness  throuiih  the  lusts  of  their  own  hearts,  to  dis- 
honour their  own  bodies  between  themselves: 

25  '  Wiio  changed  the  truth  of  God  into  a  lie,  and 
worshipi)eil  anil  served  the  creature  ||  more  than  the 
Creator,  who  is  blessed  for  ever.     Amen. 

26  "  For  this  cause  Ciod  gave  them  up  unto  vile 
affections :  for  even  their  women  did  change  the 
natural  use  into  thai  which  is  against  nature  : 

27  And  lik(;wise  also  the  men,  leaving  the  natura 
use  of  tl;e  woman,  burned  in  their  lust  one  toward 
another  ;  nun  with  men  working  that  which  is  un- 
seemly, and  receiving  in  themselves  that  recompense 
of  their  ernn'  which  w  as  meet.  . 

2«  "  And  even  as  they  did  not  like  to  retain  God  in 
their  knowledge,  God  gave  them  over  to  a  reprobate 
mind,  to  do  those  things  which  are  not  convenient ; 

29  Being  filled  \^hhall  unrighteousness,  foruica- 
tion,wickedness,  covetousness,  maliciousness ;  full  ot 
envv,  murder, debate,  deceit,  malignity;  whisperers, 

30  Backbiters,  haters  of  God,  despiteiul,  i)rou(l, 
boasters,  inventors  of  evil  things,  disobedient  to  pa- 
rents, 

31  Without  uiulerstanding,  covenant-breakers, 
witiiout  natural  aflection,  implacable,  unmercihi  : 

32  "  W'ho  know  lug  the  judgment  of  God,  that 
they  which  commit  such  things  are  worthy  ot  death, 
not  only  do  the  same,  but  have  pleasure  m  them  that 
do  them. 

CHAPTER  II.  ,       , 

1  They  who  condemn  sin  in  others,  and  do  the  lilio  themselves, 
arc  inexcusable,  whether  Jews  or  Gentiles. 

THEREFORE  thou  art  inexcusable,  O  man, 
whosoever  thou  art  that  judgcst ;  tor  wherein 
thou  judgest  another,  thou  condeinnest  thyselt ;  tor 
thou  that  judgest,  doest  the  same  things. 

2  B'lt  we  are  sure  that  the  judgment  ot  God  is 
accoruing  to  truth,  against  them  which  commit  such 

3  "And  thinkest  thou  this,  O  man,  that  judgest 
them  which  do  such  things,  and  doest  the  same,  that 
thou  shalt  escape  the  j  udgment  of  God  f 

4  '■  Or  despisost  thou  the  riches  ot  his  goodness,

11- And  no  marvel ;  for  Satan  himself  is  trans- 
formed into  an  angid  of  light. 

13  "  Therefore  it  is  no  gieat  thing  if  his  ministers 
also  be  transformed  as  the  ministers  of  righteousness ; 
whose  end  sliall  be  according  to  their  works. 

\6  "  I  say  again.  Let  no  man  think  me  a  fool ;  if 
otiierwise,  yet  as  a  fool  receive  me,  that  I  may  boast 
myself  a  little. 

17  ''That which  1  speak,  1  si)eak  /7  not  after  the 
Lord,  but  as  it  wore  foolishly,  in  this  confidence  of 
boasting. 

18  *>  Seeing  that  many  glory  after  the  flesh,  I  will 
glory  also.

t  The  Epistle  of  PAUL,  the  Apostle,  to  the  GALATIANS. 


CHAP TER  I. 

1  Paul's  salutation  :  G  he  wonders  that  they  had  so  soon  lelt 

the  truth  of  the  gospel,  &c. 
»  T>  AUL,  an  ai)ostle,  (not  of  men,  neither  by  man, 
-It  but  by  Jesus  Christ,  and  God  the  Father,  who 
raised  him  from  the  dead  ;) 

2  And  all  the  brethren  which  are  with  me,  unto 
the  churches  of  Galatia :  ,         /-i    i    i 

3  ^  Grace  be  to  you,  and  peace,  from  God  the 
Father,  and  from  our  Lord  Jesus  Christ, 

4  "  Who  gave  himself  for  our  sins,  that  he  might 
deliver  us  from  this  present  evil  world,  according  to 
the  will  of  God  and  our  Father : 

5  To  whom  be  glory  for  ever  and  ever.     Amen. 

6  '^  I  marvel  that  ye  are  so  soon  removed  from  him 
that  called  you  into  the  grace  of  Christ  unto  another 

gospel:  ,        ,        ,  , 

7  •=  Which  is  not  another ;  but  there  be  some  that 
trouble  you,  and  would  pervert  the  gospel  of  Christ. 

8  f  But  though  we,  or  an  angel  fromi  heaven, 
preach  any  other  gospel  unto  you  than  that  which 
we  have  preached  unto  you,  let  him  be  accursed. 

9  s  A  J  we  said  before,  so  say  I  now  agairu  If  any 
man  preach  any  other  gospel  unto  you  than  that  ye 
have  received,  let  him  be  accursed.       ^    . .       ,    , 

10  "  For  do  I  now  persuade  men,  or  God .''  or  do  1 
seek  to  jilease  men  ?  for  if  I  yet  pleased  men,  I  should 
not  be  the  servant  of  Christ. 

11  'But  I  certify  you,  brethren,  that  the  gospel 
whidi  was  preached  of  me  is  not  after  man. 

12  "  For  I  neither  received  it  of  man,  neither  was 
\  taught  it,  but  by  the  revelation  of  Jesus  Christ. 

13  '  For  ye  have  heard  of  my  conversation  m  time 
past  in  the  Jews'  religion,  how  that  beyond  measure 
f  persecuted  the  church  of  God,  and  wasted  it ; 

14  And  profited  in  the  Jews'  religion  above  maiiy 
iry  equals  in  mine  own  nation,  bein|  more  exceed- 
ingly zealous  of  the  traditions  of  my  latliers. 

15  ■"  But  when  it  pleased  God,  who  separated  me 


,  from  my  mother's  womb,  and  called  me  by  his  grace, 
\      16  "  To  reveal  his  Son  in  me,  that  I  might  preach 

him  among  the  heathen ;  immediately  I  conferred 

not  with  flesh  and  blood  ; 

17  Neither  went  I  upto  Jerusalomtothem  whicn 
were  apostles  before  me :  but  I  went  into  Arabia, 
and  returned  again  unto  Damascus. 

18  "  Then  after  three  years  I  went  up  to  Jerusa- 
lem to  see  Peter,  and  abode  with  him  fifteen  days. 

19  PBut  other  of  the  apostles  saw  I  none,  save 
James  the  Lord's  brother. 

20  "^  Now  the  things  which  I  write  unto  you,  be- 
hold, before  God,  I  lie  not. 

21  '  Afterwards  I  came  into  the  regions  of  Syria 
and  Cilicia; 

22  And  was  unknown  by  face  unto  the  churches 
of  Judea  which  were  in  Christ : 

23  But  they  had  heard  only.  That  he  which  perse- 
cuted us  in  times  past,  now  preacheth  the  faith 
which  once  he  destroyed. 

24  And  they  glorified  God  in  me.

made  of  necessity,  a  change  also  of  the  law.

ted  foniu  atiou,  and  the  iiihabiters  of  the  earth  hav(! 
Leeu  made  (hunk  with  the  wine  of  her  fornication. 
;J  "  ,S(»  lie  c'liied  uie  away  in  the  spirit  into  the 
wilderness  :  and  1  saw  a  woman  sit  niiona  scailet- 
coloiired  beast,  full  of  names  of  blaspliemy,  iiaviug 
seven  luiuis  and  ten  horns. 

4 ''And  the  woman  was  arrayed  in  purple  and 
scarlet-colour,  and  decked  with  !j,old,  and  precious 
stones,  and  jjcarls,  having  a  ,e,oldencup  m  her  iiand 
full  of  abominations  and  liithiness  of  her  fornication  ; 
,.2Tiic!..  5  <^  ^\,ni  upon  her  forehead  was  a  name  written, 
,i,'p  11,1.  IVIYS'l  KlIV,  BABYLON  THE  GlIl^AT,  THE 
r«'2''.'.  iMOTHEK  OV  HAULOTS  AND  ABOMINA- 
TIONS OF  TOE  EAllTli . 

G  '  And  1  saw  the  woman  drunken  with  the  blood 
of  the  saints,  and  with  the  blood  of  the  martyrs  of 
Jesus:  and  when  I  saw  her,  1  wondered  with  great 
admiration. 

7  And  the  any;ol  said  unto  me.  Wherefore  didst 
thou  nuirvel.''  I  will  tell  thee  the  mystery  of  the 
woman,  and  of  the  beast  that  carrieth  her,  which 
hath  the  seven  heads  and  ten  horns. 

o  s  'i'lie  beast  that  thou  sawest  was,  and  is  iiot  ; 
and  sh:dl  ascend  out  of  the  bottomless  pit,  and  .i:,o  iiuo 
perdition  :  and  they  that  dwell  on  the  earth  shall 
wonder,  (^^'hose  names  were  not  written  in  the  book 
of  life  from  the  foundation  of  the  world,)  when  they 
behold  the  beast  that  was,  and  is  not,  and  >et  is. 

5)  "  And  here  is  the  mind  which  halh  wisilom. 
The  seven  heads  are  seven  mountains,  on  which  the 
woman  sitteth. 

10  And  there  are  seven  kings  :  five  are  fallen,  and 
one  is,  and  the  other  is  not  yet  come  ;  and  w  hen  he 
Cometh,  he  must  continue  a  short  space. 

1 1  And  the  beast  that  w  as,  and  is  not,  even  he  is 
the  eighth,  and  is  of  the  seven,  and  goeth  into  per- 
dition. 

12  '  And  the  ten  horns  which  thou  sawest  are  ten 
II  kings,  which  have  received  no  kingdom  as  yet  ; 
l)Ut  receive  power  as  kings  one  hour  with  the  beast. 

13  These  have  one  mind,  and  shall  give  their 
power  and  strength  unto  the  beast. 

14  '^  These  shall  make  war  with  the  Eainb,  and 
the  Lamb  shall  overcome  them  :  for  he  is  Lord  ol 
lords,  and  King  of  kings  :  and  the};  that  are  with  hnn 
(lie  called,  and  chosen,  and  faithliil.  . 

15  'And  he  saith  unto  me.  The  waters  wliich 
thou  sawest,  where  the  whore  sitteth,  are  peoi)U)s, 
and  multitudes,  and  nations,  and  tongues. 

16  ■"  And  the  ten  horns  which  thou  sawest  upon 
the  beast,  these  shall  hate  the  ^^•hore,  and  shall  make 
her  desolate  and  naked,  and  shall  eat  her  ilcsh,  and 
liurn  her  with  fire.  ,  -,  i  • 

17  For  God  hath  put  in  their  hearts  to  lullil  Ins 
will,  and  to  agree,  and  give  their  kingdom  unto  the 
beast,  until  the  words  of  Cod  shall  be  fuHilled.

great  city,  which  reigneth  over  the  kings  of  the  earth.

Am  in  the  twentietli  year  of  Jorohoara  succeetis  his  father  Abilara,  anil  relanj 
41  years.  ^ 

Nadab  in  the  second  year  of  Asa  succcedeth  his  father  Jeroboam  In  th«  kinj- 
dom  of  Israel,  and  reigneth  not  full  two  years. 

Nadab  nt  .he  siege  of  liibbethon  (a  town  of  the  FliiUitinet)  Is  slain  by  Ba.uha 
of  the  tribe  of  Issachar  in  the  third  year  of  Asa ;  and  the  same  year  having 
made  himself  king  over  Israel,  he  utterly  destroyelh  Ihe  whole  race  of  Jerobo- 
am, and  reigneth  21  years.  At  this  time  lived  the  prophets  Jehu,  IlananI,  and 
Aiaria.«. 

Asa  destrnyetb  ulolatry,  and,  enjoying  ten  yeai-s  of  peace,  strengthens  bis 
kingdom  w  illi  forts  and  a  standing  army. 

Zerali  the  Klhiopian  with  an  innumerable  army  invadeth  Judali:  Asa  over- 
comes him,  sacriticeth  to  find  of  the  spoil,  and  nitiketh  a  solemn  eovemnt  with 
OikJ.  He  also  depnsetji  .Maachah  his  granrie.  .ihcr,  a  great  patroness  of  Idol- 
atry',  briugeth  into  Ihe  temple  those  things  which  bis  father  and  himself  had 
consecreleu  unto  God,  and  enjoys  a  long  pence. 
Klali  the  sou  of  Daaslia  succeeds  his  father  in  the  kingdom  of  Israel. 
In  Ihe  second  year  of  bis  reign,  and  Ihe  Iweuly-seienlh  of  Asa'=  Zimri,  one 
of  his  captains,  c:msplres  against  him,  kills  him,and  reigneth  in  his  stead.  As 
roon  a.s  he  sits  in  the  Ihnme,  he  destroyeth  Ihe  whole  family  of  llaasha  i  but  the 
army  which  then  lay  before  Gi'ibelhoii  makes  Oniri  their  king,  who  presenllv 
besiegelii  Tlriah,  and  laketh  it ;  which  Zimri  seeing,  be  sets  on  lire  the  king  s 
palace,  and  perishetb  in  the  llames. 

The  people  of  Israel  are  now  divided  in*o  two  factions;  one  follows  Tibni 
the  sou  of  f  iinath,  and  endeavours  to  make  him  king ;  the  other  adheres  to  Omri , 
but  Tibni  dying,  Omri  reigns  alone  in  tiie  31st  year  of  Asa. 

Oinri  having  reigned  six  years  inTiriah,  removes  the  seat  ofliis  kingdom  lo 
Samaria,  a  place  which  he  himself  had  built. 

Ahab  succeeds  his  father  in  the  kingdom  of  Israel,  and  reigneth  22  years  in 
Samaria,    lie  did  e\  il  In  the  sight  of  the  Lord  alKive  all  that  were  before  him. 
Tehosbaphat  succeedelb  his  father  Asa  in  the  founil  year  of  Ahab  king  ol 
Israel,  .-uul  reigneth  25  years  in  Jeru.salem. 

Jeboslmphiil  being  settled  in  bis  kinirdom,  and  having  demolished  the  high 
places  and  groves,  in  the  thu'd  year  of  bis  reign  he  sends  Levites  with  the 
princes  to  instruct  the  people  iu  the  law.  God  in  the  me  mime  subduetli  bi« 
enemies  under  him. 

Ilen-hodad  king  of  Syria  iayeth  siege  to  Samaria,  who  by  Ihe  direction  of  ii 
prophet  is  beaten  off,  and  a  vast  num''er  of  the  Syrians  slain. 

.\hali,  not  being  able  to  persuade  -•  diotb  lo  sell  him  his  vineyard,  falls  sick 
upon  it  5  Jezebel  his  wifp,  suliorning  false  witnesses  lo  accuse  liim  of  blasphemy, 
catiseth  Nabotb  to  be  sinned,  and  puts  the  king  in  possession  of  Ihe  vlneyaril. 
Whereupon  Ihe  prophet  Kl'^jah  deiiouucelh  judgments  against  Ahab  and  Jec- 
ebel;  wickeii  Ahab  repenting,  God  defers  the  judgment. 

Ahab  in  the  seventeenth  year  of  the  reign  of  Jehoshaphat  n.aketh  his  son 
Abariab  his  associate  in  the  government  of  his  kingdom. 

Jehoshaphat  also  mnkelh  leboram  his  son  cnjinrtner  with  him  ;  whence  it  is, 
tli.it  Jeliorn",  the  son  of  Ahab,  who  succeeilcd  his  orotber  Ahaiiah  in  the  king- 
dom of  Israel,  iu  the  10th  year  of  .lehnsliiiMliat  king  of  Judali,  is  said  to  have 
begun  his  reign  in  the  second  year  of  Jehorapi  the  son  of  Jehoshaphat. 

Ahab  having  got  Jehoshaphat  to  assist  bim  in  Ihe  siege  of  Hamolh-gilead, 
before  he  goes,  lie  asketh  counsel  of  4IX)  false  jirophets,  who  promise  him  vic- 
tory and  success  ;  but  by  Jehnshapbat's  advice  Micaiah,  a  true  prophet  of  God, 
is  consulted,  who  forerells  his  overthrow;  and  according  to  his  word  Ahab  is 
slai:i  at  Haiiioth-gilead,  and  buried  nt  Samaria. 

Ahab  being  dead,  Ihe  Moabites  revolt  from  Israel,  w  ho  had  continued  in  suli- 
jertlon  ever  since  king  David's  days. 

Ahaziah  king  of  Israel,  lying  ill  of  n  fall,  sends  lo  consult  Tlnal-tebub  Ihe  god 
of  Eki  on  concerning  his  recovery.  Elijah  the  prophet  meelelh  the  messenger, 
and  lelleth  him  Abin.iab  snail  siirely  die;  wherenp  ui  two  captains  over  fil'ly 
men  apiece  are  sent  to  apprehend  bim,  and  bring  him  before  the  king ;  Elijali 
calleth  for  fire  from  heaven,  and  destroyeth  both  them  and  their  companies.  A 
third  captain  with  his  fifty  -^leu  being  sent,  ami  behaving  himself  submissively, 
Klijah  goes  along  with  liim ;  Ihe  prophet  certifies  the  king  that  be  shall  not 
come  down  from  Ids  bed  alive.  So  .\nailali  ilielb  hnvuig  goveined  (partly  by 
himself,  and  paitl;  together  with  ids  father)  two  years. 

Jehorani  sncceeilelh  his  brother  Ahariab  in  the  kingdom  of  Israel  iu  llic  latter 
end  of  the  eighteenth  year  of  Jeiiosbapbat,  and  reigneth  twelve  y"Ars. 
Elijah  is  taken  up  into  heaven  in  a  fiery  clinriot. 

Jehoshaphat  grown  old  gives  to  his  sons  many  gifts  with  fenced  cities  In 
Judea  i  but  his  I'lde^t  son  Jehuram  he  now  more  absolutely  investelli  witii  llie 
throne  of  the  kingdom  in  the  fifth  year  of  Jehorain  king  of  Israel. 

Jchoram  now,  by  the  death  of  bis  father,  has  the  kingilom  of  Judali  to  him 
self,  whicii  he  holds  four  years.  He  Ls  no  snnuer  settled  iu  his  throne,  but  be 
puts  all  his  brethren  to  the  sword,  with  many  of  the  princes  of  I  sriiel.  At  tliis 
lime  the  Edoinites,  who  over  since  king  David's  lime  had  lived  in  sul  .iection  to 
Judah,  revolt,  and  (as  it  was  foretold  by  Isaiw)  they  forever  shake  off  bis  yoke. 
Libnah  also,  a  city  of  the  priests  in  the  triiic  of  Judnh,  falls  off  from  him  aljont 
tids  time. 

J'horam  following  the  counsel  of  his  wicked  wife  Alhidiah,  Ihe  il.uighter  ol" 
Ahab  king  of  Israel,  sets  up  in  Judah,  and  evei.  in  Jerusalem  itself,  the  idolatrous 
worship  of  Uaal,  and  compels  his  subjects  thereto:  a  letter  which  was  left  for 
him  by  F.lijah  the  urophet  comes  to  his  hands,  w  hich  reproves  liim,  and  denoun- 
ces all  those  calamities  and  punishments  w  hich  afterw  nnl  befell  him. 

Ahaziah  succeeds  his  father  In  Ihe  kingilom  of  Judah  (having  had  part  of  the 
government  bestowed  uiHin  him  the  year  befori')  in  the  12th  year  of  Jeiioram 
king  of  Israel,  and  reigneth  one  year  in  Jerusalem. 

Jehoram  king  of  Israel,  and  Ahaziah  king  of  Judah,  lead  their  n'mies  to 
Ilanioth-gilead  against  Hauiel,  who  had  newly  succeeded  Hen-lwon  '  in  the 
hingtlom  of  Syria;  Jehoram  is  dangerously  wounded,  mid  retires  himself  to 
Jezrcel  to  be  cured.  In  the  nieantinic  Elislia  seiidelli  n  youni?  jiiophet  with 
instructions  to  anoint  Jehu  the  son  of  Jehofh.njihal,  the  son  of  .Nimslii.  at  tta- 
moth-gilea,l,  king  over  Israel,  and  to  open  to  liim  the  w  ill  of  God  for  the  moling 
out  of  the  house  of  Ahab;  wlio,  being  proclaimed  king  by  the  soldiers,  marcheth 
straight  to  Jeireel,  killeth  Jchoram  in  Ihe  field  of  Nnbnlli,  and  cniiselb  Jei.hel 
lobe  castout  at  a  window,  where  she  is  eaten  by  dogs.  He  despntchelh  letters  also 
•o  Samaria,  and  causeth  seventy  of  Ahnh'schiblren  Icbe  beheaded.  1  ben  taking 
with  him  Jehonadab  the  son  of  Rcch.b,  he  comes  himself  lo  Samaria,  and  de- 
stroys the  whole  family  of  Ahab,  and  all  the  priests  of  Baal.  Nevertheless,  hav- 
ing put  down  the  worship  of  Baul,  he  departs  not  from  Ihe  worship  of  Jero- 
boam's golden  ca' ves,  but  maintains  that  idolatry  all  the  tJmi-  of  his  reign,  which 
was  2S  years. 

.lehii  prorecils  farther,  end  executes  the  divine  vengeance  upon  l.he  idola- 
trous house  of  Judali ;  he  pursues  Ahaziah,  who  fleil  low  uids  Megiddo.  and  over- 
taking him  at  (iiir,  causeth  him  to  be  killed  in  his  chariot.  G  .ini?  also  to  Som-i-

Athaliah  the  daughter  of  Ahab,  seeing  her  son  Ahaiiih  dead,  usurps  the  king-

Nehemlah  having  governed  Judca  12yeors,  returns  toihe  king  of  Persia.

That  Slalachl,  Ihe  last  of  Ihe  prophets,  was  contemporary  nlth  Nehemlah,

man  appeared  nnto  him  In  the  very  same  habit,  who  invited  him  to  come  Into 
A«ia,  and  promised  to  deliver  Ihe  Persian  Empire  into  bis  hands.  After  this 
he  goes  lo  the  temple,  ami  offers  sacrifice  according  to  the  high  priest's  ilire':-

Tryphon's  vices  render  hiin  so  wlious  to  his  soldiers,  that  tliey  submit  them-

nii.  'tor  concerning  Cornelius ;  and  they  gliaify  (iod  fiir  granting  to  tlie  UcntUes

The  believers,  who  ever  since  the  martyrdom  of  Stephen,  and  the  persecution 
thereupon  ensuing,  had  been  dispersed  thi-ougliout  all  f  henice  and  Cyprus,  come 
now  to  Antioch,  and  preach  the  gospel  lo  the  (ireeks  there,  having  before 
preached  to  none  but  the  Jews.  'The  Church  at  Jerusnhni  nnilerstanding  Uiis, 
and  that  the  number  of  believers  increased  'xceedingly,  sends  Uarnabns  iliither 
to  confirm  them  ;  he  goes  to  Tarsus, and  takes  Saul  alonijwith  him  to  Antioch, 
where  tney  continue  a  whole  year,  converting  muliitiiries  to  the  faith.  Here  the

prayers  of  the  church.  This  same  Herod,  not  long  after,  speaking  to  the  people 
at  Cesnrea,  some  of  them  cry  out,  It  is  the  voice  of  (iod,  and  not  of  man :  and 
immediately  an  angel  of  the  Lord  smites  him,  because  he  gave  not  the  glory  to 
Ood ;  and  he  is  eaten  of  worms,  and  dieth. 

Barnabas  and  Saul  set  fin-ward  in  their  preaching  of  the  gospel.  They  plant 
the  Christian  faith  in  Seleuciu,  Cyprus,  and  other  places.  At  Paphos  they 
preach  the  gosiiel  loSergius  Paulus,  governor  of  that  country:  Eljmias,  a  sorce- 
rer, withstanding  them,  and  endeavouring  to  turn  away  Sergius  Irom  the  faith,

The  strntlh  Age. 

like  llie^selves.  Soon  after  there  come  Jews  from  Atlioch  and  Iconliim,  wh(» 
excite  the  people  against  thein.  Paul  is  by  the  furious  mullitiule  itonij,  and 
drawn  out  of  the  city  as  dead  ;  but  whilst  the  disciples  stand  about  him,  he  rlsetU 
up,  and  the  next  day  departs  with  Harnabas  to  Derbe. 

In  this  year,  perhaps  at  this  very  time,  Paul  was  caught  up  into  the  third 
heaven,  and  lieanl  linspenkniile  words,  fimrteen  years  before  he  wrote  his  sec- 
(md  epistle  to  the  Corinthians. 

AIniH  this  time  Timothy,  th(ai"h  a  child,  with  his  mother  Kunice,  and  his 
grandiiiolher  Lois,  embrace  the  (;hrlslian  faith  preached  bv  Paul. 

Certain  .Imlnizing  Christians  come  from  .ludea  lo  Antiocli,  and  teach  that  the 
(tenlites  i.nghl  to  be  circumcised,  and  observe  the  \aw  of  Moses;  ihese  Paul 
and  ISi'rnaba'  ojiltosi^,  ind  a  council  is  held  by  the  apostles  and  others  at  Jeru 
snhiM  111  iletei  mine  this  controversy.  The  decrees  of  the  synod  are  sent  to  the 
cliu-ches. 

Paul  and  .'larnaliiis,  thinking  to  visit  the  churches  together,  fall  at  strife,  and 
part  asunder:  Ibiinabas  and  Mark  go  into  Cyprus  ;  Paid  and  Silas  Into  Syria 
aiidclliiia. 

i'liul  coming  lo  Derbe  finds  thei-c  Timothy,  whom  (because  Ids  mother  wasa 
believing  Jew,  thongli  bis  father  a  Gentile)  he  rauseth  to  be  circumcised,  and 
lakes  liini  aloeg  wiili  him.  He  is  by  a  vision  ndmoinshed  to  go  into  .Mncetlo- 
nia  ;  coiniii'r  to  PhillppI,  Ihe  chief  city  of  that  part  of  Macedonia,  he  converts 
Lidia  :  easteth  out  of  a  certain  maid-servant  a  spirit  of  divination,  whose  master 
losing  a  considerable  gain  thereby,  briiih^  Paul  and  Silas  befine  the  magis- 
trates: these  cause  thein  lo  be  whipped  and  inipiisoned  ;  but  at  midnight,  Paul 
and  Silas  praying  and  singing  psalms,  the  doors  of  the  prison  fiyo|a^n,  ami  tlieir 
liondsaie  loosed:  the  Jailer,  ready  lo  kill  himself,  is  converted  to  the  faith,  and 
baptized  t!ie  sumenight  with  his  whoh- I'amily.  Nextday  themagistrnles  cnme 
themselves,  and  pray  ihein  to  deiiart  the  city. 

From  l'liiiip;»i  Paul  takes  his  journey  tliiough  Amphijwlis  and  Aimllonia, 
and  ciinies  iii  riie^salei'ica,  w  here  he  finds  a  synagogue  ol  the  .lews  ;  there  he 
prcii' belli  tlnce  siiljltalh-days  ,  some  believe,  "others  jH^rsecute  Iiini.  Leaving 
Tbes^alnnica  he  comes  lo  itt'rea,  and  soon  after  arrives  at  Athens. disputes  with 
Ihe  philosopb(is,aed  dei  lares  unto  them  that  UNKNOWN  GOD,  whom  they 
liad  ignorenlly  wiir4iii>pcd.  He  converts  Hionysiusthe  Areopagite,;uid  ibenie 
pa.s.setli  to  t:orintli. 

Paul  al  (;i>riiitb  meets  with  An'O  a  and  Priscllla,  not  long  before  ImiiMicd 
Home  by  the  decice  of  Clamliiis.  .lere  he  continues  a  year  and  six  niii.il's 
and  tlience  >.iitestn  tlie  I'hessalonians. 

Paul  is  iic(  u^f'.l  hy  the  .lews,  and  brought  before  Gallio,  proconsul  of  A(  hai.i, 
who  rf;iii..elh  lo  jiiitfje  in  a  controversy  about  religion,  and  so  drives  liicj  . 
away  from  ti.e  Jiidgmenl-seat. 

I'mil  departs  iVoni  Corintli,iind  passethto  Ephesus,  ihencehe  set"  (ml  liiv,n;(i- 
Jeriisidein.  that  he  may  lie  at  the  feast;  he  lands  at  Cesarea,  govs  ilown  lo 
Anuoch,  and  conies  into  the  regions  of  Galatia  and  Phrygia,  eonfiriniiiL'-  the  (ii<- 
cijilcs  in  nil  those  places. 

Paul  returns  to   EpI.esns,  disputes  dally  in  the  .school  of  Tvr.annus,  and  o■■■■ 
liuiiispwiithinglliere,  and  the  parts  thereabout. 
He  writes  bis  epistle  to  the  GalaUaes. 

Al  Mpbe^us,  Demetrius  a  silversmith,  jealous  of  his  gain,  raiseth  a  tumil' 
11'rnin^.t  Pi'ul,  w  liith  is'apj'eased  by  the  town-clerk.

I'liul  departs  from  Kphesii",  and  conies  into  Macedonia,  and  gathers  a  coiitii- 
biuiini  for  ilie  relief  of  the  •.aiiiisat  .lerusalem. 

I'heiijiosili .  Inivintjlcariit  lioin  Titus  the  success  of  his  first,  writes  now  I.N 
second  epistle  lo  tlie  Cm  intbinns.  Out  of  .Macedonia  he  goes  into  Greece,  ael 
comes  to  ( ■(ninth,  where  he  Wliles  his  epistle  to  the  Honialis. 

Paul  piiiposing  to  go  directly  from  thence  into  Syria,  that  he  may  c.irry  t'e^ 
cnllrctiens  to  Jerusafein,  the  Jews  lay  wail  for  him;  he  nnilerstanding  ltil<.
